$0/moFreePublic prices and benefits only

$1/moStreetcat CollectiveWelcome to my Patreon page! Or should I say, my Catreon page? 😹You can probably immediately tell that I am one of those "crazy cat people." Which obviously means I have always had tons of cat photos in my library.THEN THE PANDEMIC HIT. You do the math.This basement level tier is for anyone who simply wants to show support and help keep me from becoming a streetcat myself! For your humble pledge, I will send you a personal heartfelt thanks for supporting an independent creative type who wants to spend whatever time he has left in this life doing, well, creative things - instead of sitting behind a desk answering to someone else. I will also send you a once-a-month cat photo from my collection - I've got some real good ones! 😉 And then a cat video mid-month.

$2/moAlleycat AllianceFor your modest pledge of $2 per month, you will receive the tier 1 heartfelt thanks (and monthly cat photo!) for your support. I will also send you a once-a-month song from my previously published work, in hopes of encouraging you to move to the next tier!Think how far YOUR minuscule donation will go if I am able to find just 1 or 2 thousand individuals (out of 8 billion in the world!) willing to join at this incredibly insignificant donation level?

$3/moStraycat SalonWhy not chip in JUST a little bit more and get access to ALL of the amazing, previous content I have already created? If you choose this category, you get my heartfelt thanks (with monthly cat photo!), PLUS links to EVERYTHING of mine already out there in the public sphere! This is comprised of A LOT of professional recordings, live music videos, compositions, writings, photography, etc. - all of which will hopefully encourage you to join a higher contribution level.

$4/moChonky CheshiresAll benefits listed above, plus COMING SOON (start date TBD) -- you can reserve a seat to be in the audience for a roundtable zoom discussion of Grateful Dead and religion, theology, and spirituality with noted deadheads who are Christian and Jewish clergy and scholars. This will be primarily a "join and listen" format, with a little bit of time reserved at the end of each session for you to speak up about your experiences!

$5/moSinging SiamesesAll benefits listed above -- PLUS easy access to all of the music videos I have been creating for social media. These will often come as "collections" with multiple videos once a series is completed.

$6/moFeline FamilyFor those who specifically love my music! All benefits listed above, plus access to a once a week video livestream concert where I will perform originals and covers on mandolin, guitar, strumstick, and keyboard - ranging from rock and pop to folk and country to musical theater, opera and oratorio. If you choose this category but can't attend, it will be recorded and therefore viewable afterwards. (You can hear music excerpts on my home page.)

$7/moEk Ek Ek EnsembleAll benefits listed above - PLUS weekly (or sometimes more) access to my unfolding series of vlogs: "David the Irate Hippie," "How to Fix NYC," "Let's Get Black to the News," and whatever other frequent videos I find myself creating!

$10/moTabby TroopersAll benefits listed above - PLUS, 4-days-a-week (except for holidays and vacations) I will send you a daily blog posting in which I muse about everything under the sun: religion, politics, life experiences, hardships, beauty, absurdity, music, travel, food, etc. (You can see a free example entry on my home page.)

$15/moCalico CornerThis tier is mostly for those who personally know me - but all are welcome! All benefits listed above, plus a once-a-week 1 hour livestream gathering where I will present episodes about my life: an "Interactive Oral Autobiography," which you all will help steer with questions and comments throughout. I have long wanted to do SOME kind of autobiography, because the sum total of my life experiences sure feels incredibly unique to the human condition. If you choose this category but can't attend, it will be recorded and therefore viewable afterwards.

$20/moClowder CliqueFor those who want to dig deeper into my writing! All benefits listed above, plus a once-a-week chapter in my ongoing "Death Diaries" eulogy project — a sort of “autobiography through loss” in which I am writing personal reflections about friends, family, and colleagues I have lost along the way - with an eye towards publishing this as a book some day. I consider this to be the most elegant writing I have done since graduating from Seminary. (See example on my home page. I started this project with 13 entries, but am pushing 90 imminent installments so far, having lost that many people!)

$30/moSongcat SerenadersAll benefits listed above, plus delivery once a month of a recorded brand new original song. Yes, I will take requests for subject material! (No guarantees though!)

$35/moChina Cat ClubAll benefits listed above, plus you can request a song monthly, which I will feature on an agreed upon weekly livestream. And please let me thank you live online by name! (Unless you prefer to remain anonymous).I will also make an audio or video recording of your favorite song for you to keep or to send to someone of your choosing - for instance, a love ballad to send to your significant other for Valentines Day or an anniversary. (Note: No SUPER complex song requests, please! And I'll do my best with this recording but it won't be professionally done in a studio!*)*I AM, however, willing to invest the time to have this song recorded professionally in a studio if you are willing to bear the extra cost.

$40/moWhisker WelcomersAll benefits listed above, plus a one time LIVE video call with me, you, and a loved one or friend of your choosing at any point, where I give them a 30-min concert that you are dedicating to them. Grandpa in hospice and you want to comfort him in his last days? Really wanna step up your game with that gal you're dating? How about a fun set of party songs for your college graduate? You and I will work together to pick the suitable repertoire, and I'll be your live video soundtrack for whatever event this turns out to be!

$45/moRider's Rock n' RollersAll benefits listed above, plus access to an on-call classically trained tenor for an event of your choosing, such as a funeral or wedding. Funerals in particular usually require expedient preparation, so this saves you the hassle with that piece of the planning process. Obviously my schedule would need to be open, but assuming it is, that's one less detail for you to worry about. Classical, folk, contemporary Christian, gospel: whatever you need. We can work together to choose appropriate repertoire. Price all inclusive for NYC area*. Outside of that I ask that you also please cover travel, lodging, and food. Home stays are fine!(*Note: All inclusive for NYC as of June 30. If I relocate, then the "all inclusive" will necessarily have to shift to the region wherever I end up!)

$50/moProwling PanthersAll benefits listed above, plus I provide an in-person live concert for your family and friends in the comfort of your own home! (Or any other venue you choose.) I prefer "concert" to "background music" but will provide whichever you desire. I only ask that you allow me to bring some business cards or flyers to advertise this page, so that I can hopefully pick up a few more patrons. Price all inclusive for NYC area*. Outside of that I ask that you also please cover travel, lodging, and food. Home stays are fine!But wait, there's more! You will also be invited to attend my livestream concerts in person, so that maybe I'll even have a small audience sometimes. I'm happy to provide drinks and a few snacks.(*Note: All inclusive for NYC as of June 30. If I relocate, then the "all inclusive" will necessarily have to shift to the region wherever I end up.)

$60/moTuxedo TeamAll benefits listed above, plus I'll be available for a personal weekly 1 hour live video chat or phone call (NYC area can be in person). We can stay in touch, you can ask questions, make suggestions, I can fill you in on my creative process, etc. Guests are welcome to join you.

$125/moAlthea All StarsAll benefits listed above, but you're a BIG FAN of David Bryan, you love and appreciate the work that you've seen me create over many years and you are feeling extra generous and supportive! Mindful of your munificence, if you commit to this level, I will work with you to be at your beck and call for ANY creative needs you have - within reason of course! But I will go out of my way to express my appreciation and be there for you. (For example, I'd be available for multiple weddings, funerals, or other events [including virtual] as long as my schedule is clear. Maybe someone in your family wants BEGINNER level lessons in voice, mandolin, guitar, piano, or general music theory? In person or virtual both possible.)

$250/moGraffiti GarfieldsFor the HUGE FANS of David Bryan! If you've come this far, I'll throw in 2 added bonuses: access to my would-be-award-winning salsa recipe* w/ in-person tutorial, and in-person short form tai chi lesson (with virtual followups as needed).*as in, I'm fairly certain this salsa recipe would "place" in a competition -- maybe not first prize, but pretty damn sure it would get some kind of ribbon or recognition! 😁

$500/moSimba Super SupporterJust in case! Why not, amiright?? 😉I don't even know what to add at this point! I'll sing your name from the top of the Empire State Building? Compose a sonnet about your virtues? Write a musical theater script about your life?How about once a month you just bring a significant other or best friend over to my apartment, I'll cook you a glorious meal, and then sing for you while you eat? Or your place, if it's more convenient! (If you don't live in the NYC area, we can do this quarterly, I'll get myself there!)
