70's Dance Music Icon and Premiere Wine Producing Vineyard enter into New Business Alliance.

KC and the Sunshine Band

San Jose, CA (PRWEB) December 9, 2007 -- Richard Finch, noted Producer / Arranger and co-founder of 70's mega-super group "KC and the Sunshine Band" and Rich Little, musician and owner of Little Vineyards Winery in Sonoma, CA have come together to launch "Band Blend - The CD" in conjunction with Little Vineyard's award winning "Band Blend Track 2" Gold Medal winning wine. The CD/wine combo will go on sale Monday, December 10, 2007.

This incredible 10-track CD, featuring an eclectic mix of Jazz, Blues, Funk, Reggae and Soul is performed by some of today's hottest new artists from Canada, Finland, the U.S. and also includes new, original music from both Little and Finch.

States Little, "Who knew that during a casual afternoon meeting, Rick and I would identify an untapped market and come up with an amazing idea to combine our 'Band Blend Track 2' wine with Rick's 'Band Blend' compilation CD." Finch goes on to state, "The concept that Rich and I have developed is unique and fresh, just like Little Vineyard's 'Band Blend' wine and the amazing music and artist's I've produced for this project. The pairing of the two truly is a beautiful fusion of the total sensory experience."

Finch is no stranger to success in the music industry, having produced and performed numerous Number One hits with KC and the Sunshine Band, resulting in seven Grammy nominations and five wins, plus four American Music Award nods and two wins and a commemorative star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame presented in 2002, recognizing the cultural impact of this 1970's super band.

Little Vineyards, a 17 acre family estate is owned and operated by Rich and Joan Little. Located in Glen Ellen, CA, this Sonoma Valley appellation is ideal for producing quality fruit and outstanding red wines. Zinfandel, Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon are the primary varietals planted on this vineyard as well as a small block of Cabernet Franc, Malbec, Petite Sirah and Merlot. Two award winning wines have been produced from their estate grown fruit: a 2002 Zinfandel and 2002 Resonance, and a Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon blend.

With an increasing number of today's listening public frustrated by the single artist CD, "Band Blend - the CD" offers listeners an exciting alternative to an otherwise passé format. Advance sales have been strong, and plans are currently underway to produce a second compilation "Band Blend" CD in August 2008.

Little Vineyards is offering the "Band Blend" CD alone (MSRP: $15 + s&h), or in a one or two bottle "Limited Edition" gift set (MSRP: $30 and $45 + s&h respectively) via the Little Vineyards web site. Shipment is available worldwide (domestic shipping restrictions may apply to your state - please inquire).
