LOS ANGELES, CA / ACCESSWIRE / April 22, 2020 / The Jimmys, the crowd-favorite Madison, Wisconsin-based blues and rhythm and blues band, has signed with Sanwire Corporation DBA Intercept Music ("Intercept"), an entertainment-technology SAAS business, for enhanced online marketing and distribution services.

A festival favorite for more than a decade, The Jimmys is a powerhouse band that has traveled throughout the U.S., Canada, Europe and the Caribbean. Led by multiple-time "Keyboardist of the Year"* winner Jimmy Voegeli, the band has amassed numerous recognitions for their musicianship and showmanship, including most recently "Best of Madison 2020" by Madison Magazine; nomination for Artist of the Year, Horn/Big Band of the Year, Bassist of the Year, and Reeds/Brass of the Year by Wisconsin Area Music Industry; two nominations for Blues Blast Magazine Music Awards; and induction into the Madison Area Music Association Hall of Fame. The band recently released its latest album, "Gotta Have It," which received a four-star review from the legendary jazz/blues journal, Downbeat Magazine: "This new album brims with an honest feeling that stimulates the bandleader's casually forceful vocals and piano work."

Intercept Music is an online platform specifically designed to help millions of independent artists effectively promote their music and distribute it worldwide to hundreds of digital stores and every major streaming platform, including Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, Pandora, and Google Music.

Their musical skills and authenticity are second to none, and we're on task to expand their reach to a global audience through our proven systems."

Voegeli, band leader of The Jimmys, added, "We heard through industry experts that Intercept Music has both the technology and the music industry knowledge to effectively serve out our music to listeners around the world. They've got that covered, so we can do what we do best, which is writing, gigging and knocking the socks off of every audience."
