Matt Baird, frontman of Christian hard rock band Spoken, has started a Kickstarter campaign to release a worship album and is looking to raise $10,000.

"You guys are seriously the Best! The Kickstarter project has broken $2,500 in 1 week. Thank you guys so much for the support. If you know of someone that might be interested in helping out, please send them this link," wrote Baird on his Facebook, "Hope all is well. Don't forget to message me your phone # when you pledge. Phone calls begin today."

According to his Kickstarter, Baird will begin recording this album in Nashville on January 5. It says 100% of the budget will go to funding the project in terms of studio and production.

"Anytime you're faced with giving up control and letting God take over, its never an easy decision. With studio time already booked and no gaurantee of a fully funded project, Matt is moving forward in faith believing this is just another step in God's even grander picture," the site reads.

Some of the Kickstarter perks include a phone call from Baird, early digital downloads, playing a show in their town, and an opportunity to hang out in the studio.
