Blue Sky Mission Club releases their highly anticipated new album to eager fans!! 
Truely, defining Blue Sky Mission Club is.. "Practicing the age old tradition of playing music people want to dance to". Ithaca, New York based Blue Sky Mission Club has been making music under the voice and guidance of founder London McDaniel since 2004. In fact the Bands 2006 CD “Riding the Horizon” is a happy rollicking debut that will undoubtedly get the feet moving. 

Blue Sky Mission Club just finished a new album, "Middle Of Everywhere", that takes the roots rock vibe to neat places. “Dance With Me Sister” adds horns and a light jazz feel to Lee's lovely vocals. “Down And Out” throbs like a swampy love song as she sings, “You may think I’m Dreaming/But I couldn’t love you any deeper than I do”. And "Run Away Tonight" is a sweet march that strides into a pop-friendly feel.... Get ready to groove with Roots Rock, Zydeco, Soul and The Blues! 

BSMC is a festival band by nature. As seen at over 200 festivals in the past 4 years, (including The Great Blue Heron, Hickory FestGrassroots), BSMC also hosts our own music festival called MUSEFEST. For the past 10 years, Musefest has hosted a 3 day/30+ bands music festival located just outside of Ithaca, NY. The tradition still continues today.

    "The 18th annual Great Blue Heron Festival was an outstanding platform for the release of Blue Sky Mission Club's highly anticipated new album, "Middle Of Everywhere"
   
    Blue Sky Mission Club was proud to perform new and original zydeco/Soulgrass music this year to a legion of new fans and peers at The Great Blue heron Festival. Not only was the release of “Middle Of Everywhere” a success, new songs like “Little Bird“, “How Long” and “Dance With Me Sister” truly grasped the audience with irresistible grooves and blissful harmonies.  
 
    By the end of the set, Blue Sky Mission Club had truly lived up to there code of honor: "Practicing the age old tradition of playing music people love to dance to" Our audience was thrilled and they wanted more, how could they resist? The icing on the cake had to be the lap steel work of London McDaniel as the crowd raged to Blue Sky Mission Club's foot stomping encore, “Show Your Soul”.
