| BluesRoot Airplay Exposure Increases Around The World BluesRoot, Americana music duo built on a foundation of early blues, '50's rock and roll and rockabilly, is getting increased airplay for songs off of their original song CD, "Live. Real. In the moment." Over 300 streaming internet stations and broadcast stations are now airing tunes from the ten song CD which was released in 2006. One of the songs, "Hold Tight Mama" recently finished 24th out of 502 entries in an American Idol online competition. BluesRoot is comprised of two 1960s era music veterans and retired businessmen: John D, Moore and Art Borgeson. Moore is the singer and songwriter of the group, and also plays electric acoustic guitar and harmonica while Borgeson adds Nashville inspired electric guitar lead lines and backup vocals. When touring, the group expands to three with the addition of another '60's music vet, Jeff Ward who adds backing vocals and bass guitar. write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Jazz News :: home page |
