Bluegrass Documentary Film Reaches Financial Goal

UPDATE:  In a message from producer Anna Schwaber….”10 hours remain in our 60K in 60 days campaign. We are 101% funded.  If you or anyone you know would still like a pre-release DVD or Kickstarter donor exclusive Hatch Show Print, then TODAY is the day! Gotta get it! Other rewards were added too.”

Pledges of any amount can still be made until 2:56AM ED

Just a few short weeks ago it looked as if they had a long way to go.  A quick check today of their Kickstarter fundraising  page shows that with almost a full day remaining on their timeline, they  have exceeded the $60.000 needed.

The way the Kickstarter campaigns work, if the goal had not been met by the established deadline, none of the pledged amounts would have been  received.

These finishing funds will allow the producers to license and restore archival footage, photographs, and music, to create a documentary that will serve as a great resource to Bluegrass fans.

“With your pledges, we will be able to bring this film, the music, and the Bluegrass legacy to millions of homes across the world,” said Anna Schwaber in a last minute push  just a few days ago.
