The Importance of YOU!

Maybe you have read about our recent campaign to play at Bonnaroo.  We got the idea because recently the band came across an article about Danika Holmes (article here).  Danika is an indie artist from Iowa who had a dream to play the Heartland Jam Music Festival in Davenport, Iowa.  She contacted the festival talent buyers multiple times and received no response.  While many artists may have given up at this time, Danika decided to re-tool and motivate her fans.

Danika decided to start a campaign at 4am on her social media sites, with the intention to get herself into the Heartland Jam.  By 8 pm that same day, 100 of her fans had posted on the Heartland page.  By 9 pm the concert promoters contacted Danika and invited her to play on their MAIN STAGE!

This story was such a great inspiration to us that we started our own little campaign.  We are aiming for one of the largest festivals in the country - The Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival in Manchester, TN.   Please post on the Bonnaroo FB page any photos, video, or other VB items you may have with this message: #BonnarooNeedsVintageBlue .


The bottom line of this story is that our band has always been about the fans.  We started out entertaining family and friends, and have grown our little enterprise to heights we never imagined.  Along the way we have gained so many new friends and new fans.  We appreciate everything you do for us, and want you to know that every person you tell about our band, every post, and every "like" that you make, IT DOES HELP!

So please, keep tweeting, keep sharing our music and pages, and post about us anywhere you think we should be!!  Radio, TV, Venues, Festivals ... YOU TELL THEM!  Your voice MATTERS!  And thank you from all of us.

Thank you!
     -  Vintage Blue
