Milestone Goals
The Ball-Rolling milestone
$500 per month
I guess this is where we know that the Patreon is working!

First of all, if we've made it this far - THANK YOU! This means you guys are happy to support me directly as a creative person, so that I can keep giving you music to enjoy, while building INDHE to help more creative people make more things for us ALL to enjoy as well. This will already make a massive difference to the amount of time and energy I can throw at making the best music and the best things for INDHE too!
LEVEL UP: BIG Pledge Milestone
$1,000 per month
Oh my gosh guys. You're incredible. We've made it to the BIG Pledge milestone!

This amount is considered to be the starting point for a UBI in the USA, to help cover a single person's food and accommodation costs. As part of my BIG Creator Pledge, this is the foundation of my Patreon target, and it allows me more time and energy to focus on building INDHE and making music to share with you all!
LEVEL UP: Travel Fund
$1,500 per month
You guys truly believe in me, and in INDHE. This is so incredible! 

Thank you so much, because to make a living as a musician, I have to keep performing. Which means I have to keep moving, otherwise people get sick of me. Often my travel costs are covered by the people I'm working with, but there are always opportunities to give more and share more, even if someone can't afford to get me there themselves! This monthly milestone will be helping to make that happen.
LEVEL UP: INDHE Fund
$2,000 per month
Dudes. We've made some SERIOUS magic happen here.

INDHE is a community for collective impact, and not a commercial exercise. Any money that INDHE may make, will be invested back into the running, improvement and management of the platform itself, to keep it being the most functional, effective and user-friendly tool for creative people around the world to find each other and keep making amazing things for us all to discover, share, experience and enjoy. This milestone will mean that there is money being invested into tech development, branding, merchandise and other vital things to help INDHE be the best it can be.
LEVEL UP: Direct Artist Support Fund
$2,250 per month
Not all artists are on Patreon... yet.

As creative people, we rely on people coming to our shows, buying our goodies or supporting our work, in order to get by. Patreon is a GREAT way for you guys to be able to support people like me directly (and I am SO lucky to have you all), but not everyone is on here yet. So this fund is for me to use every month to support other artists directly, through buying their records, or tickets to their shows, or pieces of their art, or merch so I can help represent their brand. It also helps me be better at what I do, by regularly connecting with and being inspired by other creators. It also will help to grow the INDHE community, so more people can work together to create more things.

You beautiful human, you. WELCOME to my Patreon!

You're hopefully here because you're a fan of me as a musician, you're a supporter of what I'm doing with INDHE, or because someone you know is awesome enough to have pointed you in my direction. Whatever has brought you here, I'm super chuffed to have you! I know your time and energy is valuable, so let's get started:

INDHE is about connecting creative people directly with each other.

PATREON is about connecting creative people directly with their supporters, fans and patrons. It allows people to directly *sponsor* the creative people they support, and gives them access to special goodies and creations in return.

AND ME?
I am about connecting everybody with life and love and joy and kindness, and MUSIC is the way I do it best.

If we all work together and look after each other, sharing a little of what we have to spare, whether it's our art, our music, our souls, our energy, our sunshine, our connections, our resources, our opportunities or our loose change, this should truly be the start of something beautiful...

STEP ONE: Please watch my Patreon video. Just up there. Click on the photo of my face. Go on. (Featuring music from Caribou, my last band Electric Swing Circus and *this guy* - Miss Bridget Walsh.)

STEP TWO:
Connect with me. Say hello. Share your wisdom, your advice, your requests and your feedback. Come to one of my shows. Give me a hug. Let's high-five!


STEP THREE:
If you like the things that I'm doing, with music, with people or with INDHE, and if you genuinely have a couple of dollars to spare each month, then please consider pledging a little through Patreon to help me keep doing them. I really think they are good things, otherwise I wouldn't be asking for your help. Not only that, but these are things that I promise you are only going to get better as we go. Especially if I have your support.

STEP FOUR:
Have a wonderful day. Truly. It doesn't matter if you can't afford to kick me a few dollars each month. I know that feeling all too well. Your love and belief is worth more than you know. The fact that you've even bothered to engage with me to this point, means that you are a good human who believes in good things. And SO, you definitely deserve to have a good day. Every day.

INDHE is all about helping people work together as a community, which is why I am taking the BIG Patreon Creator Pledge. This means that once I've met my monthly "Milestone Goals" (listed to the left) I will onwardly pledge any surplus funds towards another Creator who is taking the pledge too.

"The BIG Patreon Creator Pledge is an acknowledgment that as creators, we don't need a lot, we just need enough. It's also a recognition of a sense of solidarity we feel with our fellow creators, and thus a wish to help all creators have enough as well, so that we can all together be free to do what we as creative human beings do best - create."
- Scott Santens (Writer & UBI ambassador)

Because of the DIY nature of INDHE (and my career in general) I'm always working to overcome challenges and obstacles, and maximise the resources and opportunities available to me, to make the best results happen. I crowd-sourced the seed-fund through Kickstarter to get INDHE off the ground, and to get me around the world to share it with as many people as possible.

I'm using sites like Give A Little for one-off charity projects, like raising funds for the NPH children's home where I recorded in the Dominican Republic in July. Plus my music will be available as "Pay what you can afford" on sites like Bandcamp, because I want to make sure that it's easily accessible and available to everyone who wants it. These platforms, and more, are all playing a role in making INDHE happen.

Patreon is about keeping it going and growing.

  • Find me on FacebookTwitter or Instagram and let's be mates!
  • Are you a creative person who wants to be part of the INDHE community? Sign up here!
  • Read more about my clever mate Scott and the BIG pledge here: www.patreon.com/scottsantens
  • Find out more about the social, economic and political movements towards a Universal Basic Income, and read that CNN article here. Plus here are some Reddit FAQs on UBI too.
  • If you'd like more details about INDHE itself, please send me a message and I can send you over the press kit.

It means the absolute world to me to have you on board. I truly think that we are going to make some massive and magical things happen together. If I didn't believe that, I simply wouldn't be asking for your help. #CollectiveImpact FTW!!

Lots of love and All The Things,

Miss Bridget Walsh // INDHE
