UTR’s Big Next Step - YOU can help!

posted: May 16th, 2017 by Dave Trout

For the last 8+ years, Under The Radar has been primarily one thing: a radio show/podcast... with a few supporting pieces around it like concerts, blog posts, contests, etc.  We are ready to take the BIG NEXT STEP and turn this ministry into a full-fledged media organization.  It is our desire to be the leading voice in curating and championing well-crafted, faith-inspired music.

We are on the cusp of ushering in our creative relaunch (target is the end of June), which will include:
* New organization name + new logo
* New mobile friendly website
* New video productions, including:

     - Full length artist interviews
     - Live and produced music videos
     - Documentary features
     - A few zany/fun things sprinkled in
* FIVE New audio podcasts releasing this Summer, including:
     - An all-music show
     - An interview-based show
     - Series following the creation of albums
     - Crowdfunding & patronage show by Garret Godfrey
     - Creative process show by Nick Flora
* New album compilations, including:
     - Live At ETTL, Vol.3  (coming this May)
     - ETTL 2017 Artist Sampler  (coming this July)
     - A Rich Mullins Tribute Album  (coming this September)
* Restore Dave Trout's full-time status with UTR

To accomplish everything above, we need YOUR help. We are launching our BIG NEXT STEP FUNDRAISER, now through 6/17/17. Our goal is to raise $12,000 to help boost our creative relaunch and get all of the (above) listed initiatives off the ground.  We have some kind & generous friends in Kansas, Missouri, Ohio, Colorado, & Georgia who have stepped up with some leadership giving to say "If the UTR community is willing to contribute $6,000+, we will take care of the other $6,000!"  We also have some bonus gifts if you give at the following levels:

MONTHLY GIFTS OF $1-9/MO AND ONE-TIME GIFTS UP TO $119
We are grateful for any and all new contributors, and although your gift doesn't qualify for a matching contribution, it does add to the overall goal and helps us step forward in faith.
