New Link: It's on our links page, but we wanted to shout about a link to a site we care a lot about. The Mark W. Graham Foundation is a nonprofit organization that honors the legacy of Mark W. Graham, a fallen soldier who was also a role model; a husband, son, brother, uncle, and treasured family member; and a young man who brought laughter, smiles, and joy to those who knew him. The foundation offers support to military families in crisis and to young people of outstanding characther. We invite you to visit:  |

Welcome to the Blue Merlot website!
Thanks for stopping in. We've been having fun (as usual) putting
together goodies for your enjoyment, enlightenment, and edification.
A few words about the site. It's a work in progress, and we also
believe in things that are easy to navigate. Thus, you will find
no spinning-and-whirling flash intros to skip. In honor of our
Friends With Slow Connections, we didn't stream the music,
either. You'll have to click on a link in songs to actually
listen. Hey, it's exercise, and we're very health conscious in
this band (yeah, right). Besides, that empowers you, our esteemed
Web Visitor, to choose what you want to listen to. What a
concept, eh?
Yes, we have a few "radical" concepts: Excellence in audio
fidelity, intelligent songwriting, and liner notes on our CD (including
lyrics in a readable format). Go figure!
We hope you'll enjoy the visit. We have info on the band, audio,
recording, and other fun things. As much as we don't like MP3s
(we think they are a communist plot to get people used to poor sound
quality), we do have a few on the site because hey, what good is a
band's website if you can't hear what we sound like? Note that
these MP3s were converted from the high speed (88.2K bitrate)
masters. But if you really want to give your ears a treat, get a
copy of our debut CD, Blue Merlot. You can order it securely
online or visit one of our local outlets. Scroll on to find out
where!
