Want  to let everyone who enjoys  the pure tropical sound of music, that
there is a club out there that is promoting this genre called the
MARGARITA MAFIA.  I have attached a link at the end of the newsletter for
you to visit the site and see all the great artists out there who make up
this group.  The "TROP ROCK" music is really taking off and you hear it in
various artists music these days.  The steel drum sound and ukulele are
really becoming popular instruments as well as conga percussion.  It's
just a feel good, happy go lucky sound that is so easy to love.  I
encourage you to visit the site and become members.  It is only $15 per
year and you receive a t-shirt with your membership as well as some
great discounts toward Tropical Music artists releases and their many
venues across the states and in the Carribean.  It is the goal of our club
to have Trop Rock as a genre of music recognized by the larger music
awards events.  So join up now and spread the word to everyone you
know.  They also have an annual Trop Rock Music Awards event in Key
West every November and members receive the right to vote for their
favorite artists.  We would appreciate everyone helping us out and
sending a vote our way for 2011 Trop Rock Awards.   Don't forget you can
still order our  CD "RED SKY AT NIGHT" here on the website on our music
page.





The summer is coming fast and whether it is a solo act or 2or 3 man show
as well as the big band.  You can catch a smaller accoustical version of
Cruize Control at Bumsteads in NIxa usually on Friday nights from 7-11
PM.  We'll be playing at different locations on the first Thursday of the
month for the Ozark Mountain Parrot Head Club and their monthly
meetings.  Ozark Mountain Parrot Heads rock and know how to party.  
You too can be a member and see what all the hype is about.  Come and
