"It is satisfying when two companies in a companion industry can see the benefit of mutual promotion to reach a common goal," said Stan Hitchcock, Chairman and CEO of BlueHighways TV. "BHTV and Rural Rhythm are both linked to roots music fans throughout the nation, and with this new partnership, we can continue to spread the word about BlueHighways TV's roots music programming, including the new features with Rural Rhythm artists."
"For us, it is all about the music," says Sam Passamano, President of Rural Rhythm Records. "Television is one of the ways people are discovering and enjoying new music, and this partnership with BlueHighways TV strengthens another marketing path to our fans and customers. We are extremely excited for some interesting collaborations over the next year."
