 Los Angeles, CA (TOP40 Charts/ Universal Music Distribution) -- The Pacific Sun media organization and LocalMusicVibe.com have formed a unique partnership that will benefit local musicians, fans, venues and businesses by providing an outlet for them to interact here in Marin, one of the most vibrant music scenes in the country. The Pacific Sun has spent the last 48 years providing the �who, what and where� for Marinites looking for live music. LocalMusicVibe.com has spent the past few years connecting fans, bands, venues and businesses�growing rapidly as it feeds the county�s need for live entertainment.
LocalMusicVibe.com is an extension of MarinLocalMusic.com, which found much success by raising awareness of the Marin music scene�attracting new fans and increasing attendance at local shows. The site was founded by husband and wife entrepreneurs Dave and Shelley Champine.
�We are over the moon with excitement about this new partnership and see it as a step forward for the entire Northern Bay Area music scene,� said Shelley Champine in a weekly �Shout Out� announcement on the Local Music Vibe Web site.
Anyone who registers on Local Music Vibe can instantly create free, custom pages for any aspect of the music industry they represent: band, promoter or venue. They can promote upcoming events and add a group biography, photos and video. Visitors to PacificSun.com/music will be able to see the Sun�s most recent local music stories, videos, information on artists and featured shows�and have access to LocalMusicVibe�s calendar of live music events.
�Surely bands, venues and promoters will be super-psyched that a listing on Local Music Vibe automatically goes to the Pacific Sun for consideration for the Sundial events calendar,� Champine said. �Local Music Vibe and the Pacific Sun: It's one-stop shopping for Marin County live music events!�
�With this banding together of the Pacific Sun and LocalMusicVibe.com, everyone wins�
especially the fans who�ll get more show listings, more information about the bands and even
a taste of the Marin live scene through the site�s video streams,� said Gina Channell-Allen, publisher of the Pacific Sun. �Since readers already look to the Sun for where to see and be seen, and LocalMusicVibe.com allows bands and venues to promote their shows easily and at no cost, the partnership is a natural.�
To celebrate the union, the Pacific Sun and LMV are planning a launch party�featuring Marin bands at a Marin venue. More information will be available soon.
