Sublimely talented singer-songwriter Richard Walters, whose most recent EP ‘Young Trees’ is still available online, has been performing for over ten years, so far released two very well-received albums The Animal and Pacing, and had his songs included on TV shows like CSI: Miami and Grey’s Anatomy.

Walters is putting together a new album, Regret Less, and seeking funding for its production and completion in the form of pledges from fans. Through his page on the PledgeMusic website, it’s possible to pledge sums from £8 all the way up to £2,000. Differing amounts pledged result in the pledger – if that’s a word – getting not only a warm feeling of contributing to an Oxford musician’s career, but anything from a free download of the album, through signed CDs and handwritten lyric sheets, all the way up to Walters’ actual guitar!

At the point of posting this news story, 41% of Walters’ target has so far been reached within just a couple of days, which is very impressive. For anybody wanting to help raise that figure up to completion: pledge here.
