Deja Blu is an established regional 5 piece dance band with a female lead singer. We are going into our 12th year of making music. All of us sing. We have a packed summer schedule filled with weddings, summer festivals and corporate events. While the money is very good, we are all mature, seasoned players who have full time jobs that are flexible and allow for some travel.

This is a part time job working for one of Colorado's premier dance bands. We average 40-50 shows/year. We work with a full time sound man, have a full time manager who takes care of the business end of things and we own our high end PA System with lights.

We are looking for a male with years of stage experience who is versatile, a very quick learner, has chops that can play a variety of music from Country, Top 40, Classic Rock, Jazz, Blues to Motown. We would love to find someone who can sing a bit.

You must have pro gear & attire (tux & suit), have reliable transportation for mountain travel. Have a cell phone & email account that you check often - it's how we communicate with our manager. Professional appearance is crucial.

Please, no free-lance or guys who play in multiple bands. Sorry, it won't work for us ~ it's just too hard to manage schedules. We all feel very blessed to be at this stage in our lives where we can continue to play with extremely talented musicians who we consider friends and play some very sweet gigs. Looking for like-minded bass players.

Please feel free to call Liz @ (303) 517-9852

Have you ever wondered if there is meaning "beyond the notes?"  Are you interested in helping people through a difficult time in their life?

If you have answered yes,  then you might want to consider becoming a "Certified Music Practitioner (CMP)".  A CMP plays therapeutic music by the bedside for patients in healthcare settings. CMPs  are trained by the Music For Healing and Transition Program (MHTP), which is a national organization that has been training amateur and professional musicians to play therapeutic music by the bedside for patients for over 15 years.

In Denver, CMPS are being employed by various hospitals and other healthcare facilities. Denver area fall weekend classes are starting September  September 22and 23, 2012. If you would like more information please contact Denver Area Coordinator, Barbara Lepke-Sims, blepkesims@gmail.com ; home: 303-989-3520 or check out www.mhtp.org for the class schedule and more information.

Please download an application from www.mhtp.org.  Deadline is August 1^st for the September class.

Late Friday night, after a huge rally in downtown Denver with community allies and days of phone calls to cleaning contractors, SEIU Local 105 reached a tentative agreement with the contractors. Yesterday, that contract was ratified by a unanimous vote. It includes the wage increases and healthcare increases that SEIU's janitors have worked so hard for both on the job and in the streets.

There's no doubt that SEIU could never have achieved such a victory without the help of community and allied groups, including Jobs with Justice. Once again, we've seen that solidarity works to bring justice in the workplace and beyond. Thank you for all you did, and we'll see you at the next fight.

In Solidarity,

Joe Thomas, Organizer, Colorado Jobs with Justice
