They also made numerous appearances with the Billy Graham Evangelical Association, headlined Canada’s multi-denominational Christian youth conference (YC) events and more. “The music industry has changed in a lot of ways since our last album, and we now have the opportunity to independently release our own record,” says Darryl in anticipation of the new album. “However, without a record label behind us, we also don't have the money they would usually give us to make a record… But, we don't want to cut corners; we want to make something we and our fans can be proud of and enjoy!” Inviting fans to participate in the process, Tree63’s Kickstarter campaign has a myriad of support offers, which include not only exclusive access to updates and other content from the band, but autographed CDs, signed guitar picks and drumsticks, t-shirts, posters, and even exclusives like handwritten lyrics and a Skype call, phone call or Google+ Hangout with the band.
