Rising Texas rockers Blacktop Mojo have been a great example of how to do DIY right in their career so far. As they win new fans over from coast to coast, they have announced a PledgeMusic campaign to fund their third full-length album. Their last album, 2017s Burn The Ships, produced by legendary Muscle Shoals producer Jimmy Johnson, is a scorcher! Known for their raw originals and spot-on covers, such as their 6.5 million plus viewed video for their take on Aerosmith’s classic ‘Dream On’, this album is already one of Ghost Cult’s most anticipated albums for 2019. The band commented on the campaign and you can watch the promo video and learn how to support this awesome band now.

Blacktop Mojo commented:
“We’ve been writing and cutting demos in preparation for the third record, and we’re really excited about the direction of the new material. We’re also thrilled to have so much support from our family of Fans and friends”
Fans can pre-order a selection of items including signed copies of the new album, exclusive t-shirts, fishing with the band, hangouts, and even listing their name in the album jacket.
“As independent artists, everything we do is fan-funded. We don’t have a record label loaning us a ton of money to make a record. With that, comes some financial pitfalls, but it also means NOBODY tells us how to make music for you guys and we think that’s pretty cool!”
