Patrick Wolf is an English singer-songwriter from South London who has gained a cult following releasing three albums through a variety of labels including Universal.
At the end of 2008 Wolf announced he had parted with Universal Records and that in order to complete the double album Battle project he planned to sell £10 shares through bandstocks.com: “Basically, you can invest in the finishing of the album and the production of it, and you get a share in the album. So you almost become part of the record company, like a co-owner of the album.” Wolf raised £100,000 and the first album the Bachelor was released on Wolfs own label Bloody Chamber Music in June 2009. It entered the UK Independent Chart at #2 in its first week and made the top 50 in the mainstream album chart.
Woolf has announced that he will return to Bandstocks to finance the second album of the project The Conqueror.
