Greetings Fans and Friends!

Thanks for clicking in! BlairOutLoud BAND and other projects had a killer start to the New Year.. More on this below, but for now, I wanted to update you on where we are in February and where we hope to go!

Some external operations around here have slowed down this month to take a moment and create some new “systems”, and I’m very excited about what it will bring down the road for the live shows!

It is difficult when you work as a full-time musician to pass over opportunities that are rolling in, especially when you need to eat and support your loved ones. But late in the year last year, I began to take stock of where we were as an organization, and I knew that the only way to push BlairOutLoud to the next level in the new year, would be to peel back our operations, and create the band and brand that I hope you’ll love.

The last few weeks have been completely dedicated to resetting priorities, collaborating on ideas for where we want our live shows to go, and finally, beginning the process of integrating those ideas into our presence both online, and on the stage!

PREVIEW

In the coming months, you’ll still see the physical song lists that you’ve come to enjoy at my SOLO acoustic shows. And by the way, I’ll be busy adding lots more songs to those lists soon, incorporating over a year of new requests that have come in from the fans! However, I’ll also have some new promo cards and signs with QR codes that lead back to the website with exclusive content, more selection, and some fun interactivity. My goal is to have a stronger connection with the fans, and collaborate more on song requests, catering to the patrons and the venue in real-time!

In the coming months.. on a much broader scale, we will be implementing that type of “live request system” into other live shows involving the DUO, TRIO, or full BAND line-up as well. It’s a very exciting time!

Here’s how it will work:

Imagine a concert where you go to rock out with your favorite live band, and those musicians can receive real-time live requests onstage while performing, and then tailor the sets according to what the audience wants to party and dance to.. in the moment! YES.. We are building a system to do just that! It’s an exciting venture, and will be a challenge to implement, but I’m betting that in the right venues, with the right crowds supporting us, this could be a lot of fun! As we get closer to the release of this, we’ll update you here, and of course be talking about it on our social media spots.

Other than the new request system that’s coming.. also look out for more online content, more expansion into new venues and areas, and something we’ve been waiting on for a long time, BlairOutLoud Merch!

All coming this Spring.. It’s going to be one heck of year for BlairOutLoud! Thanks for supporting us out there!
