YourJax Music

We've received over 100 submissions since our previous review session.  This week we finally sat down to vote on them.  We were unable to finish going through all of them, but we've made a dent in the stack.

I want to give a Shout Out, to the "judges", which included Tracy Collins of Jacksonville.com, Don from Stay Tuned Studios, Will Hendley from EU Jacksonville, Grant from Fusebox, plus the CW17 staff, their friends and guests.

I'm not ready to go into the list of the upcoming artists until after I've had a chance to contact them and schedule their performances.  I am also holding off on contacting them until we have a couple of details worked out on our end.

In the past, we had the bands come here to CW17  Studios to tape them.  We had to schedule during normal business hours and use our staff and the bands mics and equipment to make it happen.  Moving forward we want to take the show to the next level and get the performances produced in front of a crowd, off-campus at a venue.  We also want to take the responsibilities and strain off of our staff, who are all awesome and multi-talented, but our station is the under-dog of Jacksonville.  As such we have a small group that each have multiple jobs as it is.  Also, we had a long term vision of the show that we want to baby step towards and this is part of that process.  We have several things in the works which I do not want to announce until we're ready.   So I don't want to contact the bands and music artists to schedule tapings until I can provide them specific details.

If you (or a friend) would like to be considered for the show, please create a profile and post your music and videos here.  Feel free to shoot me a message too.  We will be scouring this site for upcoming artists to feature.

Once again, thanks to all of you that make up the community of musicians and artists of our area.
