Help Kickstart the Sleepy Man Banjo Boys New Album!

Tuesday, July 31, 2012 @10:28:51 AM


Received this email recently, and thought I would pass it on to the BHO community. I've modified it slightly for this blog post...

Hope you are well.  You and I have never officially met via email but I'm the dad of Jonny Mizzone and the "Sleepy Man Banjo Boys".  (crazy name I know :-))
While the boys have not been too engaged with the banjohangout site, they are fans and we all appreciate the community that you've built.
 
As you may know, the boys are huge fans of bluegrass music and have had been blessed with some opportunities to share this music with a new audience.  They recently released a kickstarter campaign to promote a new album they're releasing this September.  
 
Currently the project is a little over 50% funded with 19 days to go - http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/2003152574/the-farthest-horizon-album?ref=home_location
 
We've probably all seen the video of 8-year old Jonny Mizzone playing "Flint Hill Special"--and we probably all loved seeing such a young kid tearing it up on our favorite instrument! This is a great chance to help these kids succeed at something we all love. Give a little if you can!

I am proud to be a kickstart backer. The boys are terrific at promoting bluegrass. And Jonny blew me away the first time I saw him play. WOW

I should be getting a decent paycheck in the next 15 days. I will definitely help when I can. Crazy to imagine someone younger than 1/3rd your age can inspire you!

I'm really happy that they reached their goal. Those kids are going places. Thanks for the heads up too, I wouldn't have known otherwise.
