***STOP PRESS*** Thank you for helping us reach our target. Please continue to pledge, your support will go even further to helping us create a fantastic piece of original work.

Help fund 'Acoustic Overtures' the debut album of award winning musical theatre writer Dougal Irvine.

Principally known for the musicals 'Departure Lounge' and 'Britain's Got Bhangra', Dougal is proud to release an album of original-never-before-recorded tracks! Produced by SimG records and with Peter White as the musical supervisor, 'Acoustic Overtures' also features guest performances from many leading West End Actors. Many of the songs on 'Acoustic Overtures' are from shows developed by Perfect Pitch, one of the leading facilitators of new Musical writing in the UK.

"To record an album of my songs has been a life long dream of mine and will be a big step in my career. Thank you for helping me achieve it" - Dougal

Day 2 - Boom!

Posted on 16/08/2011

Hi and er...WOW! We've been running about 12 hours and we've hit our target already! That is truly incredible. Thank you so much for you generous pledges. I will be in touch very shortly to arrange things like attending recording sessions and for one lucky person (so far) to write them a song! So now what? Well, I don't want to sound greedy but we can always use more! If you feel you want to still pledge there's three weeks left to run and plenty of signed albums, launch tickets to give away. The WeFund project is only funding part of 'Acoustic Overtures', so if we raise above what we need there's no reason it shouldn't be a larger part! Anyway, thank you again and I'll look forward to keeping you updated. All best Dougal
