West Virginia Musicians and House Concerts by

Everyone has a great time, listening to live, local music! Rebecca's House Concert Our goal is to bring families and musicians together to celebrate life as a community. Chelsea McBee - Born and raised in Shepherdstown, WV, McBee quotes the old-time WV banjo tunes that she learned as major influences in her style of playing and her songwriting. She began playing claw-hammer banjo in the summer of 2005 and has been working on traditional tunes as well as writing original songs since then. Her unique, inviting voice pairs well with the distinctive sound of her 5-string. RSVP - To ShenandoahMusic@hotmail.com www.ShenandoahMusic.com Musicians networking for a change... What to help out! Start a House Concert Scott Christopher Murray is an accomplished singer/songwriter and a veteran of the acoustic music scene. Raised in the heart of the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia, Scott grew up absorbing its rich story-telling tradition and Appalachian music legacy. His first album "The Old Man Dreams," a collection of original material, was a regional success. What is a house concert? A house concert is a chance to experience music by local musicians in a warm and intimate environment. It's when someone opens up their home and invites you into their living room to share in a performance by a few of our talented musicians. Why would anyone do this? There are few venues where people can go to experience great music in a close and friendly environment. Great music makes us happy and we want to share that with others around us. These events allow us to give exposure to some incredible Virginia and traveling musicians that are a part of our worldwide network whose talents we truly believe in and wish to help promote. How much does this cost? We have a "recommended donation" of $10-20 per person but we realize every situation is different and we can certainly make concessions to fit your individual needs.

Virginia Business Networking The West VA Shenandoah Connection Group is a grassroots organization that provides community based, small business and arts networking for area professionals with the objective to encourage creative partnerships in an changing economy by Internet Business Networking From WV Executive The Shenandoah Connection network consists of a continually increasing list of musicians, artists and small business people that network together in order to make a difference in West Virginia, Virginia and surrounding states. The Web site, www.ShenandoahMusic.com, says that they are constantly interested in working with new musicians, artists and small business people moving to West Virginia and the surrounding areas. The site also promises that the Shenandoah Connection group strives to help get more music venues off the ground. Mark Barreres, the man behind the network, says that by using the Shenandoah Connection network as a promotional tool artists will get what they desire. We are a full service Web site promotion and marketing firm located in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. Our innovative and proven search engine optimization techniques have ranked more web pages in more top positions than anyone in business in Virginia, he says. Whether its Web site promotion, development, design or consulting, we can help you get the results you expect. Singing Success Barreres believes that the success of his search engine comes with the trustworthy people that he chooses to work with. I use my ability to get pages up on the search engines to attract honest hearted people to work with, he says. My sponsors pay me about one dollar a day to list them on high ranked pages on our network and I advise with them to get their site positioned high in the search engines as well. The Shenandoah network makes it its goal to open up great opportunities for area musicians. With ShenandoahMusic.com, I cross promote with artists and musicians to make things happen, Barreres says. He also believes that the network allows people to come together rather than compete. We are going to help each other become successful. Community Ties One of the concert series promoted through the network is the Rebeccas Place House Concerts. The house concert appeal is a growing effort across the Shenandoah Valley and West Virginia. Each concert offers live music shows that are created to achieve opportunities for local as well as traveling musicians. They are also designed to bring audiences and musicians closer together. A wide variety of music styles are showcased in the house concerts including jazz, folk, blues, bluegrass, rock and swing. The concerts have no admission fees but a donation to the musician is usually expected; the musicians then keep all of the proceeds. The goal of the Rebeccas Place House Concerts as well as the Shenandoah network is to form other house concerts within the area and to promote local artists who might otherwise be overlooked in the music industry. Barreres is also involved with Americana Rhythm Magazine, http://www.americanarhythm.com, which showcases music of the Shenandoah Valley, Central Virginia, the Blue Ridge and West Virginia. When people advertise with Americana Rhythm they support the musical talent from these areas. Success Story Barreres has received several letters thanking him for allowing the Shenandoah network to increase their business sales. Randolph Byrd of Charlottesville Piano in Virginia attributes his businesss success to the network. Byrd wanted the business to come up on the first page of the Google search engine and Barreres told him he could achieve this goal if he used the Shenandoah network. Byrd is astounded with the results he has received from using the Virginia Business Network. The business now comes up on the first page of Google and in the first month it added thousands of dollars worth of piano orders. Byrd is not the only one satisfied with the outcome of using the Shenandoah network. Amy Proctor from the Shenandoah Caverns and American Celebration says that the network helped them with their first, Savor the Valley Fall Festival by putting them in touch with potential vendors that they otherwise would have not known about. When asked about his opinion on the Shenandoah networks contribution to helping artists and businesses Barreres says, The Web site (ShenandoahMusic.com) is helping to change the way people think about the internet in the Shenandoah Valley and beyond. Its all about networking. Business Networking Martinsburg
