A Love Letter to Pioneer Fans, By Fahmili

Dear first fans,

We need you. We are touched by a profound feeling of anticipation; a low belly fear that we are stepping into a world that our young years have not afforded us the time and experience to know. Yet we know we must proceed. We must release this song we have no more excuses for keeping to ourselves.

We trained hard and worked with special talents and spent time preparing for this moment, yet it will be the biggest lie of our lives if we tell you today that we did not wish we could hide a little longer from the eyes and judgment of the world.

We desperately need steady and caring hands we could hold tightly unto as we walk this bridge into the now uncertain reality of our dreams. Like when we were little, like when we made our big sisters sit to take our first classes in that terrifying first day at school, we want to know that we have friends who will stand by us while we fight to steady our nerves, who will remind us that we can make mistakes and not die from them, who will never forget how we need them on this day and we are not ashamed to ask.

Yes, we need you. Have you listened to our first single “Smile”? Please spare time to comment on our song(s), on our work, on our progress and make your suggestions freely. Subscribe to our newsletter so that we can keep you posted on all that is going on in this career you are helping us to build. So that we can invite you to special “first fans appreciation events”, which we plan to make a habit of holding.

Welcome to the Fahmili. Please hold our hands. We promise to make you proud. We may not always bring home the biggest price (we will try), but we know that this journey will be interesting. You will find some happiness here. We appreciate that you care. Thank you.

Yours sincerely,
Fahmili
