~*make something good, just spit it out*~ Hi I'm Carmen! I write and sing songs and play guitar in the band Remember Sports. Feeling unmotivated by the anxiety and duress of pandemic America, I thought starting a patreon could be a cool way to 1. keep myself creating, and 2. connect more intimately with people who listen to my music already, or just want to see how I work. I've always been very interested in seeing how other artists do things, so a lot of my music content is going to be focused on process; getting from the writing stages to recording, and everything in between. I've never really shared things like journal entries, lyrics, songs in progress, initial demos, or private attempts at covers before, so I'm nervous and excited to dive in head first.  To accomplish this every month I have lots of patreon exclusive content to offer! I do playlists, covers, song demos, livestreams, drawings, AMA's, how-to's, gear videos, cooking videos, sims content and live chats, anything you want to see really! All of this will be under the umbrella of one monthly theme. The theme could be a concept, or a single word, anything that represents the current mood of my days and what I'm ruminating on creatively. Of course I'm always open to suggestions! Here's how this is going to work: Sometime during the first week of every month I'm going to post the title of the new theme, along with an essay explaining what it means to me. I will also post a playlist inspired by the theme. I'm also going to be playing a live online set from my bedroom once a month, which I'll schedule a few days in advance and tell you about! It's so fun when people tune in live and chat in the comments section, but you can also watch it later. Every month I'll also release one or two things from the following categories: Remember Sports demos, songs I'm working on either finished or unfinished, cover songs, and unreleased tracks.  I also have a patreon only instagram account where I'll post updates from time to time, as well as host live streams. It's &quot;@carmen.pee&quot; so request to follow it and then let me know either in a comment here or a direct message what your insta handle is so I know to accept.  From time to time I'll make polls to ask you what kind of stuff you like best and want to see more of! I want this lil club to reflect what YOU want to see from me. I only have one tier for now, but that might change later on depending on what the people want.  I'm really excited to share a little more of myself with you people! This is my first time trying something like this, so I expect to learn a lot as I go. If you ever have any questions or concerns about any of this, please don't hesitate to reach out! Thanks for joining me :) Carmen

Every month I choose a theme for the patreon content based on how I'm feeling, what I'm reading, watching, and listening to. I post an essay around that theme that serves as an update on my life, and also post a playlist that I have made specially for that theme. I usually post something exclusive every month, that could be a demo of a new song, a cover, a work in progress update, a video, etc. etc. I also read all your comments and messages and love to have thoughtful discussions with the folks on here. I've been doing this for almost four years now and love this community!

Part of the Club

This is all the fun of a regular membership, but maybe you are someone who has slightly more resources and is able to contribute a little bit more to my working life! All patrons help make it possible for me to spend less time at my dumb boring job, and more time playing music, practicing, and writing! 💗
