Call To Action: Red Hot + Arthur Russell Fans

by Cheyenne Peerson | October 25th, 2012

Dear friends,

Happy ARTHURSday! (See what we did there?) As many of you know, back in August Red Hot launched a Kickstarter to fund an Arthur Russell tribute album. First off, if you supported us the first go around THANK YOU! Although we did not reach our goal, we believe that Arthur Russell’s story must be told. We have refocused the project and will be launching a new campaign in November on Kickstarter.

But first we need YOUR help!

This time, we want the Arthur Russell fans to be even more involved in the project. We invite you to be a part of the new campaign by sending us a video of your rendition of “It’s All Over My Face” (a classic by Arthur Russell’s side project Loose Joints). Get creative! Sing, dance, mime, do a live painting, perform the song in sign language, whatever you want! Submit your video to info@redhot.com and we will feature it on our social media sites during the campaign.

No profanity or nudity please, just 30-90 seconds of pure disco sexiness.

Keep an eye on the RH blog, Facebook, and Twitter – we’ll be reaching out to you throughout the campaign. Feel free to get your friends in on the fun too!

Thank you for your help and we can’t wait to see what’s all over your faces!

Love,
Team Red Hot

    Guys,

    Have you considered using indiegogo to raise funds? We have a flexible funding option so if you don’t hit your exact goal you still get to keep the funds.
    Would love to give you more info.

    Thanks
    Karen
