| Jammates Launches Jazz Jukebox Featuring GA Jazz Artists Jammates LLC turns up its online jazz jukebox. This complimentary feature area on the jammates.com website profiles participating Georgia jazz artists wanting to extend their music and brand to an expanded audience. The jukebox offers a full-length track by and artist profile for each participating jazz musician or group. From anywhere in the world, jazz fans now have the opportunity to quickly listen to and learn about music offerings from Georgia's fine crop of jazz artists. "We have a good start", comments Coe Cloud, Jammates partner and director of promotional services. "But, it's only a beginning. We need more participation to really provide value for the fans. The Jammates Jukebox V1.0 features a nice cross section of jazz genres – vocal, straight-ahead, latin, fusion, smooth jazz - even dixieland. We believe there are hundreds, not dozens, of Georgia artists who deserve to have presence; and over time, we hope to identify and program as many as practical." Paul Hammock, Jammates partner and director of production, adds "We have a number of submissions in the pipeline for review. Plus, with our upcoming recording schedule, we'll certainly be bringing more compelling music to the market." "Independent artists don't have the time to do it all – play, market and merchandise." says Jammates managing partner, Pat Patten. "We're in the production and promotion business. It's the least we can do to offer up a little bit of exposure to the artists we know and serve. We encourage all Georgia jazz musicians to continue submitting their material for review and inclusion". Jazz fans and interested musicians can listen to some terrific tracks as well as learn more about the submission requirements on the "artists" page of the Company's websitehttp://www.jammates.com/artists.html write your comments about the article :: © 2005 Jazz News :: home page |
