Rachael Yamagata released her debut album — Happenstance — a decade ago, and she's planned a few anniversary gifts for fans this fall.
The 36-year-old singer will be hitting the road for both normal concert dates and several special 10th anniversary shows, and she's also running a Pledge campaign that offers dozens of gifts, including:
- New music (an acoustic version of Happenstance and a digital covers EP are among the recordings)
- Autographed memorabilia (setlists, photos, albums, etc.)
- Stage-worn dresses
- A personalized song
"You have always kept me going and I've got fun schtuff as exclusives as well as behind the scenes access that automatically comes with pre-ordering the album," Yamagata writes. "As I record and rehearse 2 shows for tour, you'll see more from start to end - the frenzy, the stillness, the biz side and of course the music as it unfolds in real time."
