DOMINO

The
Legacy
Era.

A brain injury. Six months unable to work. $15K in debt just from trying to recover. This is not only a music campaign — it is a survival story with four+ albums attached.

Back the Campaign Read the Story

This is what
the pause
actually looked like.

"I didn’t step away by choice. My brain stopped working. For six months, I couldn’t write. Couldn’t record. Couldn’t remember what I was in the middle of saying. That’s not a break. That’s a different kind of loss."

In October 2025, DOMINO suffered a traumatic brain injury that halted everything. Fifteen years of building — the touring, the collaborations, the momentum — stopped overnight. What followed was six months of recovery, $15K in debt, and the slow, disorienting process of finding out who you are when the thing that defines you is taken away.

TRAUMATICA is the first album from the other side of that. Raw, documented, specific. Not a comeback record in the traditional sense — more like field notes from a war nobody saw you fighting.

Three albums this year. A full-length in 2027. One hundred percent community-funded. No label. No shortcuts. Just the people who believe in what this is.

    Questions

    Anything
    unclear?

    Estimated delivery is July–August 2026 for all physical reward tiers. Digital items are delivered immediately after the campaign closes. All orders ship worldwide.

    A physical zine documenting the Legacy Era as it unfolds — the music, the process, the story behind TRAUMATICA. Think of it as the printed companion to the era. Limited to 1,000 copies total.

    Your name appears in the official album credits as Executive Producer — the same way it would on any major label release. For the $10,000 tier, this credit extends across the full Legacy Era and includes Grammy credit eligibility, meaning your name is eligible to appear on Grammy submissions for any project within the era.

    The campaign runs on Kickstarter. Once it closes, these reward tiers and prices will not be available again. Some merch may become available separately later, but the patronage tiers — credits, liner notes, the LA listening party — are exclusive to this campaign window.

    TRAUMATICA is DOMINO’s concept album chronicling recovery from a traumatic brain injury suffered in October 2025. Ten tracks released one per week over ten weeks. Raw, documented, specific — not a comeback record so much as field notes from a war nobody saw being fought.

    If the campaign crosses $100,000, every single backer — at every tier, no exceptions — gets access to a private online show. No upgrade needed. If you backed at $20, you’re in. This is a thank you for the community going beyond what was asked.

    This is it.

    Three albums this year.
    One community
    making it happen.

    No label. No shortcuts. Just the people who believe in what this is — and the art that comes from that kind of trust.
