There is a fan campaign building up steam for Colorado's Own National Recording Jazz Artist, Tony Exum Jr to be added to the 2012 Winter Park Jazz Festival. As a lover of jazz music and a supporter of my home state's artist, we request that Tony be added to this year's lineup. He has over 4,000 facebook friends and 2 fan pages, he's played on every major Jazz Festival in Colorado EXCEPT WINTER PARK JAZZ FEST and the winter park committee has passed on him for the last 2 years. Considering that a large majority of the concert goers for the festival are from Colorado Springs, it would only be fitting for the fans to see one of their own. On Jan 08, 2012 Tony was announced as the winner of the BREAKOUT STAR AWARD for the CoffeeTalk Jazz Radio Awards http://www.24-7pressrelease.com/press-release-rss/coffeetalk-jazz-radio-awards-256164.php National Reviews of Tony's music http://www.thesmoothjazzride.com/site/tony-exum-jr-finally/ http://www.thesmoothjazzride.com/site/concert-reviews/ http://www.csindy.com/colorado/a-different-tenor/Content?oid=1392946 http://katherinegilraine.com/2011/07/09/review-finally-by-tony-exum-jr/ http://www.allaboutjazz.com/php/musician.php?id=32475 http://genuinejazz.com/artists/tony-exum-jr.html http://www.meetup.com/DMV-Jazz-Enthusiasts/events/17097569/ http://www.whatdadizzle.com/2011/entertainment/music/finally-2/ https://www.facebook.com/pages/We-want-Tony-Exum-Jr-on-the-lineup-for-2012-Winter-Park-Jazz-Festival/203209256420517
