After The Voice

Dustin Christensen hopes to release two EPs this year

Dustin ChristensenLooks like we’ll be getting new music soon from Season 9 Voice standout Dustin Christensen.

Dustin has launched a Kickstarter campaign to fund not one, but two EPs of new music.

And that campaign is off to a good start. More than $7,000 has been pledged with 38 days left in the effort; Dustin’s goal is $11,000.

Dustin last released original music in 2011 with an album called “Highway Lines” and says he’s been writing lots of new music since then.

“I’m really proud of these songs,” he says in his Kickstarter video. “I’d really love for people to hear these songs.”

He says one EP is nearly complete; it just needs to be mastered. He plans to release that as soon as possible.

His goal is to have the second EP out in April, then package the two together as a double EP for physical release.

Head to his Kickstarter campaign and you can see the rewards Dustin is offering to contributors. You can get digital copies of both EPs for as little as $15. Or, if you just became a fan of Dustin through The Voice, you can pledge $125 for a signed box set of all the music Dustin has released, “even the horrendous stuff when I didn’t know how to sing or write songs.”

The video also includes a snippet of “Hollow Town” from the first EP and an acoustic version of “The Ruler of Your Heart” from the second. Dustin sounds great, of course.

On The Voice, Dustin turned four chairs with his blind audition performance of “Downtown Train,” then hit number one on the iTunes rock chart when he and Barrett Baber sang “Walking in Memphis” during the battle round. Dustin lost to eventual Top 20 finisher Keith Semple in the knockout round.
