Sky Blues guitarists/bassists Jon Rubin and Cliff Rubin's band SKYFACTOR has released their third CD "A THOUSAND SOUNDS", the follow-up to 2010's acclaimed "Daydreams" which featured the hit "OK", heard on MTV's smash hit "Teen Mom", and 2015's "Signal Strength" which featured the hit "Come Away," heard on the Eric Andre Show. Visit skyfactormusic.com for more information, song samples, and to order their CDs or downloads, and follow the band on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and Twitter.
Sky Blues lead singer Marc Keslow has released his first solo project, "New Life", which features Marc performing with an array of studio musicians, including appearances by Jon Rubin and Cliff Rubin. Visit Amazon or CDBaby for more information, song samples, and to order the CD or download.
Marc is donating 100 percent of the proceeds from the sale of "New Life" CDs and downloads to Sloan-Kettering Hospital in NYC. CBS News did a story on Marc, where he performed "Can't Let You Go", the first track from the CD, accompanied by Jon Rubin and Cliff Rubin.

Yes, it's true - after the success of last year's big reunion show in NYC, we decided to have some more fun onstage, by playing "Timeline" at Jon's wedding on February 28, 2004 in Tarrytown, NY. With many of the guests in attendance being people who know the band and have supported us over the years, it actually didn't feel too different than a real gig (except for the tuxedos, of course). Thanks to everyone for cheering the band on as usual.

WINTER 2003/2004 UPDATE:
COINCIDENCE OR TRENDSETTING?

It's certainly struck us that since the band has broken up, there have been a number of pop culture elements that we, in all modesty, feel like we were a bit ahead of our time with. Older songs that we were the first to cover have been thrust back into the spotlight; Supertramp's "Give a Little Bit", which we recorded on our 1995 CD "Extended Play" and was a SB live staple, became popular again through a series of Gap commercials and a cover by the Goo Goo Dolls, and Labelle's "Lady Marmalade", a song we played live with Labelle's Sarah Dash, became a Grammy-winning smash when it was covered for the movie "Moulin Rouge". REM's best-of CD shares its title with the name of our 1997 "In Time" CD, and there's even a major movie release called "Timeline", which shares its name with one of our most popular songs. And the most interesting of all is an acclaimed new novel entitled "Mr. Timothy", which uses the same obscure 1855 photograph that was the cover of "Extended Play". Now, we're not taking credit for any of this... just sitting back and smiling.

SKY BLUES IN THE ROCK'N'ROLL HALL OF FAME!
SORT OF!

The Rock'n'Roll Hall of Fame in Clevelend currently has on display the famous VW bus from Wetlands, one of NYC's best rock clubs. The bus was used as a merchandise booth as well as a home for stickers of many of the bands who played the club, which unfortunately shut its doors in late 2001. The best part (for us, anyway) is that there's a very prominent Sky Blues sticker on the front door of the bus, quite visible now in the Hall of Fame. This wasn't exactly how we hoped to get honored there, but it'll do! Thanks to Matthew Scheff and Andrew Weisberg of Wyckoff, NJ, for breaking the Hall of Fame's "No Photos" rule and submitting this pic.
