Great News! The Blueshift Group has been invited to act as Talent Buyers for a new Upscale Venue in the Capitol Region of NY State! Located in downtown Albany, the venue will feature Live Jazz, R&B, and Blues Music. In upcoming announcements, we'll discuss the specifics of the club and projected launch date of our line-ups of live Blues Bands and more...

If Bands in these genres wish to be considered for showcasing and bookings, submit your Media Kits per the information provided in the web site "For Artist" Section. Indications should be clearly made if any additional consideration is desired for representation on either The Blueshift "Web Talent Roster" or "Featured Artists Roster" to provide you with online and offline promotion and publicity of your talents.

Blueshift Radio

The newest milestone... we hit 1000 listening hours on November 7th! Recent listeners streamed from Mexico, Switzerland, Argentina, Connecticut, New York, Massachusetts, and Nevada! Tune into Blueshift Radio at work or at home.

We have stepped up advertising the availability of "Bands for Hire" and the Band Listing Page will be revamped. Artists will be more distinctly grouped:

* Web Roster, for general exposure and consideration by those looking for Artists/Bands, or wanting new recorded music;

* Featured Bands of the Blueshift Group, backed by specific marketing plans and business strategies to maximize efforts toward meeting their fans.

Now accepting materials to be consideration for placement on either listings, and for inclusion in the development of the Blueshift Talent Roster Booking Sampler CD, for routine submissions to festival organizers and arts presenters.

Artists/Bands/Musicians: call or write to us to find out more about our Support Packages and get information about how we can assist you in the areas of PR, marketing and promotions.

Venues and Talent Buyers: We have access to a wide array of Artists and Bands through our network and affiliations. Give us a call for a consultation... we coordinate the promotional support for the event or venue with you when you hire artists through The Blueshift Group to achieve a mutually successful experience!

Our apologies! Circumstances came upon us that affected our "flow" but the hiatus is OVER! We've been developing various components behind the scenes that will aid in expanding the horizons of the artists we are connected with.

At this time we are informally announcing that The Blueshift Group is "On The Air"... our internet radio station, BLUESHIFT RADIO, is located at LIVE365 and is available from anywhere on the globe with access via your PC.

We are excited at the potentials of this medium and, since April 2005, have garnered over 700 hours of streaming, going to the likes of locations such as the UK, Australia, France, Poland, Brazil, and in the USA... Michigan, NY, California, TX, TN, PA, WI, NC, MA... and more! Join us today and Preset The Station. Soon, we will embark upon featuring the music of the artists we work with specifically, while generally hosting the music of both new and legendary artists, from Blues to Jazz to Rock to 'World', and all manner of music in between!
