PledgeMusic Goes Live With First Ever Tour This September

The PledgeMusic experience doesn't end with an artist reaching targeted fundraising goals. The meaningful sharing, the connections, and the support facilitated through the platform transcend the campaigns. In the spirit of keeping the music alive, PledgeMusic is offering live performances for fans. This September the direct-to-fan platform will sponsor its first tour, a nine-day outing featuring PledgeMusic artists Bleu and Will Dailey with special PledgeMusic artists as guests in select markets.

Each step of the way PledgeMusic will enhance the tour allowing the artists to engage their fanbase through tour-specific exclusives with their individual campaigns. Some possible incentives include signed tour posters and set lists, VIP passes and song dedications. In addition, when fans pledge on Will Dailey and Bleu's pages for these exclusives, they will receive digital albums from both artists.

Critically acclaimed songwriter, producer, and indie-pop artist Bleu has been making music for over a decade. His quirky pop-music has been praised byNPR, American Songwriter, Sunday TimesUK,The Boston Globe, and The LA Weekly. As a professional songwriter, he's placed songs with Platinum and Gold-selling artists such as Demi Lovato, Jonas Brothers, Boys Like Girls, Selena Gomez, Tristan Prettyman, Chris Mann and Hanson. Award-winningrecording and performing artist Will Dailey has previously released two albums and has had his music featured in over 50 TV programs and films. He has appeared on stage alongside Neil Young, Dave Matthews, Willie Nelson and John Mellencamp at three of their philanthropic Farm Aid concerts.

Both Bleu and Will Dailey along with the special guest artists, are in various stages of PledgeMusic campaigns. Bleu will be touring behind the release of his adventurous latest album To Hell With You, and Will Dailey will be supporting the first single from his forthcoming album. The tour highlights and celebrates the process artists experience when using the PledgeMusic platform. Pledge your support now at http://www.pledgemusic.com/bleu
