Blue Jupiter News Stories:The Philharmonic Welcomes Blue Jupiter!On December 10th, 2019 Blue Jupiter headlined the Chelyabinsk Philharmonic, near the Ural Mountains, in Russia. The concert sold-out within one week of announcing it, as locals couldn't wait to get a taste of this iconic American a cappella group. "It's standing room only for Blue Jupiter, we had to bring in additional seating, as the concert is over-sold" according to management.
Blue Jupiter sang American pop and Broadway songs, with their signature contemporary 'twist'. Their stage banter was witty, and well received, even through a translator, who was working as their '5th member' on stage with them, throughout the show. According to the Artistic Director, "The fabulous foursome, Blue Jupiter, has been one of the most exciting groups we have seen, and probably my favorite of all time." After three encores, the group graciously signed autographs and took selfies with the audience for upwards of 2 hours. Moscow Votes, Blue Jupiter wins!

Disney and Abc Family chooses Blue JupiterABC Family's hosted THE holiday party of the year last week, and you could hear Blue Jupiter's harmony and beatboxing fill the room with holiday cheer. Hundreds of ABC Family executives, television personalities, and their families, soaked in the Christmas sounds of Blue Jupiter at their annual holiday event held at Rockefeller Center.
"We wanted something more contemporary than traditional carolers; that's too 'old fashion.' Contemporary a cappella is huge right now, thanks to movies like Pitch Perfect. Blue Jupiter was our favorite group of dozens we listened to. Once we heard their rendition of 'Let It Go' from Frozen, we knew we had to have them." - Event Producer The event was part of ABC Family's Pop Up Santa, and Blue Jupiter was one of the big "pop up" surprises.

Blue Jupiter at Rockefeller CenterBlue Jupiter pulled out all of the winter and holiday 'stops' at Rockefeller Center this year. Singing a cappella renditions of holiday favorites such as "Rockin Around the Christmas Tree" and "Let it Snow", audiences were delighted to hear these tunes sung in perfect harmony…with a contemporary twist!
Blue Jupiter features one of the country's top vocal percussionists; or "Beatboxers", Marty Gasper! Marty is the drummer for the band, BUT…he also sings the bass part at the same time, which makes him one unique player in the world of entertainment. This also allows Blue Jupiter to sing super fun & contemporary versions of holiday classics we all know and love. Rockefeller Center cleared the ice rink in preparation of the big event, and the iconic Rockefeller Christmas tree and ice rink at the Rock Center Cafe were the backdrop for this a cappella performance. It makes perfect sense that a New York City icon like Rockefeller Center would feature New York City's premier a cappella band.

It's no wonder they called upon Blue Jupiter when hosting a private bash for a mutually close friend of theirs.
"You guys are amazing!" says Conant as they congregate for a group photo after their performance, and Scott and Marcus playfully fight over who gets to stand next to Diana. The party took place at Scott's private test kitchen in Soho, and the menu was conceived and executed by both chefs featuring bold Italian menu items from Scarpetta, along with comfort food items from Red Rooster's delicious menu. We received an autographed copy of The Scarpetta Cookbook; chock-full of amazing italian recipes. "We figured it should live in Marty's kitchen since he's the family chef among us Jupes" says Preisler. Performing for Fashion Royalty in ShanghaiFashion shows in Asia are BIG.

April 2013: Oreos, Owl City, and Blue Jupiter!
O-R-E-OYou may know Blue Jupiter as the "the voice of the Oreo cookie commercials" for many years now…but they're not leaving their love for that little cookie behind any time soon.
Oreo turns 101 this year, and they turned to singer-songwriter Adam Young of Owl City to help launch their new campaign song. With one of the top social media teams of all time, Oreo called upon Blue Jupiter to help arrange and perform the new campaign song at their launch, live in NYC on May 14th, 2013. Adam Young of Owl City took center stage with a cappella sensations Blue Jupiter, and Pentatonix (winner's of NBC's the Sing-Off), along with 500+ a cappella singers all in harmony on the streets in Union Square, NYC. The crowds drew thousands of on-lookers, iPhone movie-makers, and oreo cookie lovers in the center of the Big Apple for this viral event set to launch on YouTube on May 15th. The new campaign is called "Wonderfilled" and Blue Jupiter spread Oreo Wonder all over NYC, Oreo Headquarters, and media outlets such as The Today Show on NBC in preparation of the big "launch moment." Blue Jupiter was not only one of three featured groups that stood side by side with Owl City, they arranged the Wonderfilled campaign song for all of the 500+ back up singers, and also joined the casting team to help cast and coordinate one of the largest assembly of live a cappella singers, of all time. A little back story for those of you who don't already know…(although we're pretty sure most of you already do!) In 2005 Oreo launched a new campaign holding a nation-wide competition to find the new Oreo cookie commercial jingle. Over ten-thousand performers submitted their unique take on the classic Oreo jingle that was used for over 60 years! In the end, Randy Jackson of American Idol declared Blue Jupiter THE WINNER, and the rest is cookies 'n' cream history.
