Welcome supporters! The Crow Women released our 4th album in October 2024. It’s called Pantheon: Honoring the Pagan Divine. Songs explore the many faces of the Goddess, the God, and other sacred beings.
We could really use help with the finances. The biggest expense is studio time for recording all these wonderful songs, and preparing them for release (mixing and mastering). The cost of the project is about $6,000. Can you chip in?
General donations
You can donate any amount you like by going to our gofundme fundraiser. We appreciate all donations, large or small.
Song sponsorship
Or, for $75 (or more if you like), you can choose a song on our Pantheon album to sponsor. You’ll be listed here on this page as the sponsor (or remain anonymous), and you can also dedicate the song to someone or something of your choice. For example:
(song) was sponsored by Red Hawk, and is dedicated with love to his priestess Ebony.
(song) was sponsored by anonymous, in memory of Momma. May she bake many apple pies in the Summerland
(song) was sponsored by Coven of the Waning Moon and is dedicated to justice for all beings
For more ideas, you can see the dedications by the sponsors of our last album, Seasons.
