For Immediate Release:

Juggling Suns Heat Up August!

Asbury Park, NJ - TONIGHT! Point Pleasant based local band Juggling Suns takes the main stage at the Sunshine Daydream Festival (aka Jerry Garcia's Birthday Bash) in Terra Alta, WV. Originally scheduled to play the late night side stage, Juggling Suns' set has been moved to the main stage featuring Keller Williams and Blues Traveler. This move is in due part to the recent momentum surrounding Juggling Suns live-album Tranzmutation on AERIA Records.

"About 5 years ago, Juggling Suns did a gig at the Stone Pony (in Asbury Park) with Keller and Merl Saunders. During sound check Keller walked up to me and said 'Hi- you probably don't remember me but back in the early 90s I used to see my old band Solar Circus play in Richmond, VA- and my first band used to cover two of your tunes!' ("All Here Together" and "Fortune Teller"). He even noodled out Fortune Teller in his own sound check! I was just blown away – what an honor! So I kind of always thought that one day we would be able to hook up," said Juggling Suns' Mark Diomede during a recent interview regarding his July 28, 2006 performance opening for Keller Williams at the *House of Blues* in Atlantic City, NJ. (Sunshine Daydream will be the second reunion of Keller and Juggling Suns in one-week's time.) Additional recent achievements include:

- The song "Droplets" being featured on the recent Relix Sampler CD which was distributed to over 100,000 magazine subscribers.

- "Schwagtown USA" being aired extensively on Sirius Satellite Radio's Jam-On channel 17. Additionally, Juggling Suns has been invited to call in for on-air updates for Sirius Radio's epic "Summer of Jam".
