Amidst the global recession and smooth jazz stations flipping one after the other, smooth jazz touring looked like a daunting challenge for artists, managers, labels and agents.

Despite that, many festivals are enjoying solid or record business, new promoters, cities and events are growing into regular touring options for artists.  As the economy rebounds, 2010 may be a strong year for festivals and artists alike.

Internet Radio has emerged into both a viable promotional tool for existing promoters and festivals as well as show promoters on their own.  Over 100 internet jazz stations flourish today with new ones starting up each week. While all are global, some seem to be localizing and filling into markets where broadcast radio has moved on.
