Streaming Cafe's Podcast on iTunes

I was thrilled last night when I turned on my Apple TV and browsed through the Podcast section.
It only took a quick search with the words "streaming cafe" and there it was... our very first video podcast.
The cool thing is that you don't need an Apple TV, you can subscribe to our video Podcast using any computer that has iTunes installed. You can even get it on your iPhone or iPod touch!
We will put out a new Vodcast (it's the official word for "Video Podcast") every week.
Hurry, subscribe and pass on the good news!

Taking a look back

I know it's getting closer to Christmas, because everything is getting crazy. We got a big snowfall on Monday and it's been Christmas season ever since. In our office we're going full stream on the Christmas and New Years show (our video post-production guy is going to need a break after this).

But, we still have two great show coming up this weekend. Jane Eamon on Friday 8pm PST, a local folk legend that will wow you with her songwriting and unique voice. And The Family Band on Saturday 8pm PST; an east coast indie folk 5 piece that is sure to be a good time. Check out http://janeeamon.com and http://thefamilyband.ca for more info.

What's coming next? A Video podcast. We're really excited to launch a weekly Vodcast which will feature songs and interviews from our shows. We're going to have a Holiday launch, so tune in for our first Vodcast soon!

More info to come.

Andrew Allen coming up in January...

Just added to the calendar for January is Andrew Allen. Fresh off his blistering cold Canadian tour.
Andrew recorded his latest ‘self titled’ EP at Mushroom Studios in Vancouver with producer Jeff Dawson (Daniel Powter, Kelly Rowland, State of Shock) which was released in March of 2009. This new EP earned him the invite to perform at JUNOFest 2009 in Vancouver. With over 300,000 km on the tour van and a drive with the same mileage, this is one artist that you don’t want to miss!
Be sure to catch Andrew @ the Streaming Cafe Jan. 22 8pm PST.
You can check out his new festive song!

Norm Strauss -Streaming Cafe Blog contributors

WE had a good show this weekend with Norm Strauss and Band. It was a nice change of styles and made for a pretty interesting evening. An enjoyable show.

SO, it's the last monday before we take Christmas Break. The production staff is hard at work, with our Christmas and New Year's shows. And I can already tell it's going to be a busy week. But we got a nice snowfall this weekend.

As you might have noticed, Streaming Cafe Blog has added some new voices. Michael, from the booking dept. will be keeping us up to date on new artists that will soon be gracing the Streaming Cafe stage (notice picture on right). Malcolm, will be giving the production crew a voice and letting us know the coolest new streaming technology on the market. Martin, will also be keeping us up to to date on the tech side of Streaming Cafe.

Let us know what you want to hear about next in the Streaming Cafe Blog. This weekend we have The Family Band (http://thefamilyband.ca) and Jane Eamon (http://janeeamon.com)

Christmas and New Year's with Streaming Cafe

We've had a great few weeks at the Streaming Cafe. We've been slowly adding to our production, marketing and booking teams starting from a small group of 3. The energy in the office is building and all of us are excited to bring Christmas and New Year's shows.

Our Christmas show we've been working on for a few months. We've collected Christmas songs after the live shows from many of the artists that played this fall. Starting on the 21st of December we will have a Christmas show featuring all of these songs.

On December 31st at 5pm PST we will start our New Year's show which will be a look back at the great moments at the Streaming Cafe in 2009. We'll have some amusing anecdotes from our lovely hosts as well as some of the more comical moments we've experienced in our first few months of operation.

In the New Year, we have some great acts booked, and some returning favourites. Returning to the Streaming Cafe in January we have Treelines, David Blair, Fields of Green and Redgy Blackout. We also have new comers Jodi Pederson and Andrew Allen.

Keep your eyes and ears on our site in the next month as we are unveiling some very cool new features.

till next time,

Zach
