It’s mastering week for the new @shearwaterband.bsky.social record. Though, we may have started a few new songs for the next next record in the meantime…

Since it's Bandcamp Friday, but we don't have anything new for you yet... for today only, we're discounting a few of our favorite bundles: both collections of Quarantine Music, Live Albums 2008-2016, and our bundle of piano sheet music.

It’s been suggested that we make wasp nest hats as merch, and while intriguing, it also seems dangerous and expensive…
Friends- We hope these dark days are nevertheless treating you well, and that you have at least a bit of rest in store before the joys and horrors of 2026 lurch into gear. (As for us, we're about to master a new album, and hope/expect that later next year we'll finally return to live performing).

For Bandcamp Friday, all of the @shearwaterband.bsky.social sheet music I transcribed for piano is on sale in a big bundle. We’ve got other bundles at a discount today as well plus the Bowie tote is only $5! shearwater.bandcamp.com

Yeah, it’s only gotten tougher and tougher to tour (financially, politically, health-wise), and especially to put on a big show which is what we’d like to do to play the songs as intended.
It is ridiculous how much the world has shifted since JPOB - from a UK point of view you’ve got Brexit, and then covid lamped *everywhere*, alongside all the cost of living hits, and it’s SO well-documented that touring isn’t viable for almost every band. I don’t know how this can be unnoticed.

We're depending on some things working out that are not entirely up to us...but, we're doing the best we can to make this happen in the next year.
I’ve never seen Shearwater live and I’m pretty sure I’ll move heaven and earth to get to a show if they tour for their new album. @shearwaterband.bsky.social

I’ve just learned that a scam has been reaching out to indiegogo users, claiming to be me, offering to ‘help’ with their campaign—& using this phony email:

contact.jonathanmeiburg@gmail.com.  

No matter what email they use, if you receive a message like this, please know this is not real. (JM)

6 days left and there's some new goodies up as perks!!
Dear Friends -

For the final week of the crowdfunding campaign for The New World, we've added a few more perks courtesy of our pal Mark Ohe, who sent us a care package of tour posters from our Matador and Sub Pop days.

I’m honored that AMRC found @mariapopova.bsky.social’s curious eyes. And I agree with her.

Shipped out my (EL’s) favorite JPOB stage light today to Alex, who very generously supported our album crowdfund.

Well, that was fast. (!!!)

One of my favorite bands is crowdfunding to release a new double album. I kicked in to get a digital copy, but was gobsmacked by this singular perk, which awaits a very rich superfan. The FAQ includes this gem: "Q: Is the "Fateful Choice" incentive real? A: We dare you."

Please consider us gob-smacked, and deeply grateful.

Thanks for more-than-exceeding our first day expectations for our new album’s crowdfunding campaign! There are still many days to go and great perks, but we wanted to express our gratitude after a banner day.

Sick of all the AI slop entertainment?

@shearwaterband.bsky.social is a real band made of real humans creating real music.

They've got a new album coming out and you can get a producer's credit on it!

Friends,

Four years ago, we launched a crowdfunding campaign for a new Shearwater album—and you helped us create, promote & distribute an LP we loved, without the support of a label.

We’re doing that again now, for our nearly-complete new album The New World.
