Finally the moment is here to make GREGORIO URIBE BIG BAND's first album a REALITY!!
Over the past few years many of you have asked me "when are you guys gonna record an album?". Well, with YOUR SUPPORT we can finally make it happen!
I set up an online campaign on www.Kickstarter.com where ANYONE can contribute funds and become supporters of our album and get some pretty cool rewards in return (including ME writing a song for YOU!).
So I want to ask you to become supporters of my album and to also help me spread the word with as many people as you can. You can donate from $5 to $10,000 and all contributions we'll get us closer to our goal. We launched the campaign yesterday and have already got $2,000 pledged!!
Here is the link for the campaign: http://kck.st/YvquGx
Thank you all so much for your support.
Gregorio

I hope you enjoyed your Easter break and that you are ready to join un once again at our monthly big band show at Zinc Bar THIS THURSDAY!
Just came back from rehearsal and the band is sounding as good as usual and we are ready to get you dancing once again.
Also, it turns out that this Thursday is the International Land Mine Awareness Day and I’ve decided to join the “Lend Your Leg” campaign (“Remángate” in Spanish) and create awareness at our show. What do I need from you? It’s very simple: I want those who come to our show to literally rolle-up your pant leg…THAT’S IT! Here’s is a video from Grammy winner Juanes explaining a little more about it as well as other related links:
