News & Updates – EP.19 | Kickstarter Interview at CES

From Kickstarter to CES: A Full-Circle Moment in Las Vegas

When we launched Litejam on Kickstarter, we knew we were starting something special. What we didn’t know was just how far that journey would take us — or the kind of moments it would create along the way.

During our time at CES in Las Vegas, something unexpected happened. We had the opportunity to sit down and speak directly with members of the Kickstarter team. What started as an unplanned encounter turned into a meaningful conversation and a small interview with Alex and Bank that we will never forget.

Standing there, face to face with part of the team that helped amplify our campaign beyond 2,000 backers and over one million dollars raised, felt surreal. Kickstarter was the platform where Litejam truly came to life — where our idea became a global movement supported by thousands of musicians who believed in what we were building. Being able to personally connect with the people behind that platform was a full-circle moment for us.

Running a large crowdfunding campaign is intense. It requires vision, resilience, transparency, and constant communication. Throughout that process, feeling supported, respected, and genuinely valued by the Kickstarter team made a huge difference. Their guidance and belief in the project helped us grow in ways we couldn’t have imagined.

But none of this would have been possible without you — our backers. Reaching more than 2,000 supporters and surpassing the one-million-dollar milestone was not just a financial achievement; it was proof that a community believed in innovation, in music, and in a new way of learning guitar. For that, we are endlessly grateful.

We’re excited to share this short interview with you so you can get a glimpse of how that moment at CES felt from our perspective. It was spontaneous, genuine, and a reminder of how far Litejam has come — and how much further we’re ready to go.

Thank you for trusting us. Thank you for believing in Litejam. And thank you for being part of a journey that keeps surprising us in the best possible way.

The story continues — and we can’t wait to keep writing it together. 🎸
