    JBTV's Interests
General

"We're the strangest show on television," Jerry Bryant tells us, although if it's strange it's only in the sense that it's almost a throwback to the days of old school radio.

..
Music

Since the mid-80's, Jerry Bryant has been entertaining Chicago with his low-tech rock & roll video showcase. The show, which has gone largely unchanged in the 20+ years it has been on the air (as has Jerry Bryant, himself), continues to be a tremendous way to be exposed to new & truly alternative music, far removed from the mainstream media sources.

JBTV gives needed exposure to local music & touring bands who come through Chicago in a way that is highly entertaining and captivating. The old TV ads for the Celozzi-Edelson car dealerships used to have the slogan "Hard to find, tough to beat." That slogan also applies to JBTV.

http://chicagolandradioandmedia.blogspot.com/2009/01/larzie-awards-2008-local-tv.html

Shot in HD since 2001, JBTV is a Chicagoland television institution, showcasing the best in alternative, independent, local, national & international music videos, interviews, as well as exclusive live, in-house performances on the JBTV Sound Stage.

Hosting many of the biggest names in modern rock history, JBTV serves as not only the last source for modern music television in the country, but one of the only remaining examples of a proud tradition of local programming.

Motivated only by his love for music and a strong determination to introduce overlooked artists to his loyal viewers, Jerry has produced and aired JBTV for over two decades and still remains true to his roots.

With the national progressive switch to high definition (HDTV), JBTV's show & production house allows bands serious & affordable means to promote their talents and gain success in their careers.

JBTV never fails to offer its viewers new episodes each and every week.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The hard work of JBTV has not gone unnoticed over the last 24 years:

- Multiple Billboard Awards: Best Modern Rock Program

- Multiple Emmy Awards: Outstanding Achievement, Entertainment Programming

- Chicago Music Awards: Best Music Video Show ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
