About
San Gabriel Valley Music News Now Online!
In addition to its news beat covering community news for Arcadia, Monrovia, Sierra Madre, Pasadena and Temple City, Beacon Media, Inc has created this online destination devoted to complete coverage of music news in the San Gabriel Valley.
John Stephens, Editor of the Beacon Media newspapers, has named Bill Peters, music reviewer and reporter for Beacon Media, as Music Editor for the on-line service.
“Peters Music News offers news and information of interest to residents of our coverage areas. The digital platform of Peters Music News allows for more widespread and in-depth coverage of a large and still-growing music scene in the SGV. Working in conjunction with our library of weekly print publications, this site will be an added resource for print readers seeking more information on music-related stories and subjects.
Beacon Media’s newspapers have consistently covered classical music on a weekly basis since 1996 and the company is proud to continue that tradition in print and on the internet with daily updates to our local music scene,” Stephens said.
This site offers the community a combination of music news, reviews and an events calendar, plus multimedia features to be added as the site continues to develop.
This site also contains information about the people who are involved in music in our area, our music organizations, musicians and the happenings that are not regularly reported, well, anywhere!
“As we develop the site,” Peters noted, “we will rely on music groups to provide information about their concerts, personnel, and the music they will play. We encourage any groups planning concerts to send an e mail with information, pictures and even MP3 tracks that we can post to the site, whetting visitors appetites for good, local music they can’t hear anywhere else.”
