AARP has a New Music service called Jukebox

By Michael Husser

AARP has a new free music service that provides a variety of music you can tailor to your own tastes. The service is called “AARP JukeBox” and is powered by Pandora. The web address is www.aarp.org/fun/music

Launched in October 2007, the service is available to anyone. I’ve set up my own channel for blues and classical music and the service works great. Once you set up the channel, it will continue to play music in the genre selected.

Welcome back! If you are joining us for the first time, take a look around. We are constantly developing and improving the Mature Musician site to better serve our members. Remember it’s FREE to register.

We’re all very excited to announce the first Mature Musician T.V. show. It was a lot of fun making the half hour program and we will be producing at least one show a month. The MM Show is taped in Berkeley CA and features (what else?) mature musicians (MMs) from the San Francisco Bay Area. It is currently airing on two local cable channels with more coming soon. You can see the video intro to the show below.



If you live in the San Francisco East Bay Area, let us know if you are interested in appearing on the program. If you would like to see the show in your area, please let me know how to contact the local cable provider. Songs performed on the show can be seen on our new You Tube page called (what else?) Mature Musician. Just go to www.youtube.com/maturemusician to see fellow MMs playing music.

We are seeking music video performances for our MM play list on You Tube. Please send us your video clip and we’ll be glad to include it. There are only two requirements for inclusion:

1. The featured performer must be over the age of fifty or

2. The majority of the band or group must be over fifty.

We are also introducing a new section on the site called “Drummer’s Corner” that features interesting articles and observations from two MM drummers, Frank India and Bob Ryken. They have a wealth of experience and we are looking forward to enjoying their writing for a long time to come. If you would like to submit stories or article for any of the sections of the MM site please send me a note to editor@maturemusican.com

Yours in Music,
Michael Husser
