Hey everyone! Just wanted to give a little update since a lot of cool stuff is happening and It's been a minute since my last update.


I just got back from the TRG Colloseum a few days ago and man, that was one of the best times of my life. We ended up raising 183,000 dollars!!for Direct Relief charity and I got to perform my video game metal covers in front of thousands of amazing viewers. The TRG community is seriously one of the kindest and most supportive communities and I'm so happy to now be a part of it.  Clips and highlights from the marathon will be uploaded to The Runaway Guys YouTube channel. Give them a sub if you want to stay up to date! https://www.youtube.com/user/TheRunawayGuys (I'll also be sharing on my discord and twitter when stuff comes out)


I've been hard at work making music and trying to really level up my arranging and mixing. But alongside that, I'm working very hard on some potential LIVE performances at Cons coming up this year! I'm waiting to hear back from multiple cons so I think there's a big chance that some of you will be able to see me perform live! And at the very least, you all can see me with a full band performing on Twitch at the con!! I'll keep you updated when things get confirmed.


Tomorrow I'm actually going to be going to a Patreon irl meetup in my hometown where other Patreon creators meet up and talk about stuff. I initially wasn't planning on going because I had so much to catch up on, but the folks at Patreon actually specifically reached out to me and asked me to go. So I think that will be a cool thing and it's rad that Patreon recognizes me as a valuable creator on their platform.


Alongside working on some new music right now, I'm just about to reveal MY NEW LOGO!!! I will probably be revealing it tomorrow as I have it totally ready to go and I'm just figuring out how I want to make the reveal as epic as possible.


With my new logo, I'm going to be doing a bunch of overhauling on my branding. Things such as a new cover photo, intro / outro to my videos, and just breathing a lot of new life into my content.


Since I'm talking about spicing up my branding, I wanted to ask if you all had any suggestions for some new Patreon rewards to add? I'm absolutely not deleting any rewards or changing anything drastically, but I think this is the time to to level up my Patreon page and give some extra content. I'll be filming a new Patreon video since my original one was from a little while ago. But before I do I want to have potentially some extra rewards solidified.


Additionally, I was curious also how yall felt about Patreon lense to give some behind-the-scenes footage of my daily life and music-making progress. The only thing that I'm iffy on with lense is that I believe it emails you all when I make a single lense and that feels like a lot to have thrown at you whereas Snapchat just sends you a push notification. 


Some examples of new extra content could be something like discord hangouts, private live streams. tutorials for songs. etc etc. Let me know what you'd like to see! Let me know if you're a guitarist, or a video game fan more-so and what I can do to further add value to your support.


Thanks so much for your amazing support! I appreciate you all more than I'm able to really convey through text but you all make it possible for me to focus 100% on my music and create (what I believe is) my best content yet.


Thanks for reading and as always, my DM's are open and I hope you're having a great weekend!

🤔Hmm… perhaps offer a perk at one of the tiers that provides the patrons with 20-something-second riffs of your covers that have been converted into m4r's & m4a's to use as ringtones. I don’t know if that would be a highly coveted reward or even be worth your time, but it's probably worth considering.

hell yeah. I think that's a cool idea! I'll see if I can do something like that. thanks Michael :)

How about providing higher quality file formats for final masters? WAV, FLAC? would pay extra dosh to make it happen

That's actually already a part of the 1$ tier! Granted I sadly forget to upload the flac sometimes since it was recently implemented. Just uploaded Tallon Overworld's mp3 and wav files. thanks!
