Barrage, the musical group bringing a new sense of inspiration to the world one note at a time.
LOGAN, Utah-Barrage is a young hip musical group that is traveling throughout the country sharing their musical talents with the world. Barrage is a group of musicians that have come together from all over the world to bring a new style of sound to people all over.
Barrage was created in Calgary, Canada in 1996. As the years have come and gone different cast members have been added to the group and others have left to go onto other things. Barrage combines a bunch of musical numbers together and brings music from all over the world to one stage.
“High Strung” is the name of the tour for this coming year as they prepare to tour the world. Each cast member brings a different style to the table and is able to bring fireworks to the stage when combined with all of the cast members.
“Each of the players had a different style and character that added to the group that helped the music come alive and reached out to me,” said Natalie Jones.
The tour began on Feb 15th in Tallahassee, Florida and will continue to tour until May 8th 2008. They will be visiting stages all of the country. This amazing group will complete over 20 performances in the USA, Europe, Asia and Canada. For specific dates and cities check out the website.
The songs played by the entertainers come from different musicians from all over the world. There are chines folk tunes, American blue grass music and Acadian Fiddle tunes.
“I loved the music and the feelings I felt as I listened to the concert. It made me feel as if I had visited different parts of the world and I didn’t even leave the small town of Logan,” said Lisa Christensen.
The cast of Barrage includes six violinist/vocalist, one drummer, one bass player and a guitarist. It takes so much time and energy to bring this musical group together and make things happen.

This was nicely written Jeff. In the 6th paragraph 'stages all of the country' doesn't make sense. In the 9th paragraph put attribution with 'it takes so much time and energy...'. Titles to the people quoted would be good and possibly an interview with Ellen Eccles worker would be helpful.
Put your contact information at the bottom as the PR or media person.
The current date needs to be at the top.
Your list of Barrage "High Strung" under Meridith's name is confusing. Is that her formal title?
Your headine is too long. Either shorten it or break it into a main head and a sub head.
Natalie's quote makes it sound past tense, like the group doesn't exist any more. She says "had" when she should say "has".
Make your dates AP Style.
Make your state names when written with cities AP Style.
You have the elements of a boilerplate, but you don't have a separate paragraph that is the boilerplate. Put the Clagary sentence and the cast members sentence together to make a boilerplate.
