David Grisman Quintet Flutist of 22 years, Stretches out With his own the Matt Eakle Band for a Night of Jazz Fusion at The Osher Marin JCC

San Rafael, CA (PRWEB) January 05, 2012

The Matt Eakle Band

Thurs. Feb. 16 @ 7:30

An evening of jazz fusion from Marin local favorite and flutist extraordinaire Matt Eakle and his band, filling the Hoytt theater with music and cocktails with a twist. With Alex Baum on bass, Jack Dorsey on drums, and Joey Edelman on keyboard, the Matt Eakle Band highlights the long history of four brilliant musicians whose synergy is a force of nature.

The Matt Eakle Band was chosen by the Marin Independent Journal as one of “The Best of the Local Sound” for 2010, an honor given to, “…artists that you should have been listening to this past year.” Paul Liberatore writes: “This is a deep groove band playing jazz fusion at the highest level, showcasing musicians who not only know how to play, but how to listen.”

We perform all original material, says Matt, music that blends the classic sounds of rock, blues, soul, jazz, with the musical traditions of Africa, India and South America.

Head-turning, jaw dropping, spell-binding, adrenaline-pumping jams that transfix and transport. The Matt Eakle Band and their CD, Hardly Work prove just how powerful flute-fired fusion can be.

The County of Marin Selects ShoWare Ticketing System

Fresno, Calif. (PRWEB) May 23, 2012

ShoWare by VisionOne, Inc. today announced that the County of Marin has selected the ShoWare system for its countywide ticketing solution. The County chose ShoWare to manage ticketing operations at both the Marin Center and the annual Marin County Fair because of the its comprehensive feature set including powerful sales and marketing capabilities, flexibility to control fees and its ease-of-use.

For over 40 years the Marin Center has presented a spectacular array of world-class performing arts events. As one of the Bay Area’s top venues, it features several settings including the Marin Veterans’ Memorial Auditorium that seats 2,000 and hosts a variety of major events, a 22,500-square-foot exhibit hall that can be partitioned for a variety of uses, and the 315-seat Showcase Theatre.

The Marin Center also contains fairgrounds that feature a 14-acre lagoon, walking paths, lawns, and garden areas. In addition to art and music festivals, corporate picnics, parties, and dog shows, the fairgrounds is also home to the 67th annual Marin County Fair, an award-winning county fair running June 30 through July 4, 2012.

Prior to ShoWare, the Marin Center was using several disparate ticketing systems, which limited the venues ticket sales, service and marketing potential. That led Marin County, to put out a formal request for proposals. The County received more than a dozen submissions and after an extensive review process selected ShoWare.

ShoWare delivered the strongest proposal in providing a comprehensive, single-platform ticketing solution that would work best for us and our community, said Jim Farley, director for the Department of Cultural and Visitor Services County of Marin. Marin County and its residents are especially tech-savvy, so features like online, mobile and social media ticketing as well as free print-at-home tickets are powerful features that allow our patrons to purchase tickets when and how they want, whether its from a computer, a tablet or a smartphone. This will be especially helpful in purchasing advance tickets for the county fair.

The Marin County Fair will be the first fair in California to utilize ticketing directly within Facebook. It will also be the first fair in California to use ShoWares brand new mobile ticketing product. ShoWares mobile ticketing product allows patrons to easily purchase tickets right from their internet enabled smart phones without the inconvenience of having to download and store an application on their smart phone.

Since using ShoWare, the Marin Centers ability to control ticket fees has reduced the cost per ticket for patrons by more than a third, while driving greater net revenue for Marin County. Farley also touts the ShoWare systems robust sales and marketing capabilities, such as the Facebook ticketing, as a way to increase its overall customer relationship management

ShoWares Facebook ticketing is a great way to grow and interact with our fan base online, which is especially popular with our community, said Farley. Overall, we find ShoWare incredibly helpful in allowing us to better understand our customers, which ultimately helps us serve them better. Were very excited about ShoWares potential for the Marin Center.
