Ground Zero with Vincent Productions to offer video streaming on internet

While there is nothing which can substitute the experience of catching a live show at Ground Zero Blues Club, there is now a close second thanks to a partnership between Texas–based Evolution Fuels and Gary Vincent of Clarksdale’s Vincent Productions.

Beginning this Friday and coinciding with opening day of the Sunflower River Festival, Ground Zero will be offering web-based video streaming of all performances at the club.

Those accessing the Ground Zero website can grab their own virtual front row seat through the technology provided by Vincent and Scott Doucet of Vid BlasterUS.

Included in the set-up are three high definition cameras which will be able to capture sound and video images of the highest quality.

“In keeping with the club’s rustic decor, the cameras have been placed where they are hardly visible, keeping the attention of the audience on the stage,” Vincent said. “Every aspect of this is cutting edge, high-end technology.”

Bill Luckett, who co-owns Ground Zero along with actor Morgan Freeman and Howard Stovall, says it is exciting to know that blues fans from all over the world will now be able to experience the music.

“This is the next step for the club to offer our guests – even those who can’t be here in person – the chance to participate and enjoy the music that makes this part of Mississippi so special,” Luckett said.

Ground Zero has been open in Clarksdale since May 2001 and offers live music Wednesday through Saturday nights.

The club has been featured on CBS’s 60 Minutes, The Food Network, The Travel Channel and numerous other broadcasts. Every year since 2005, it has been named one of the “Top 100 Bars and Nightclubs in America.”

A Friday night performance by local blues group Big T and the Family Band will kick off the web cast which can be accessed at www.groundzerobluesclubmusic.com

Vincent Productions and Evolution Fuels are in the process of merging to form Evolution media.
