The Breeze Is Named The Official Music Channel of the Richmond International Film Festival

The Richmond International Film Festival is one of the largest international film competitions in the Mid-Atlantic, and brings the excitement of film and music events throughout many venues around Richmond…but now the excitement will come to your home.

As the Official Music Streaming Channel of RIFF, The Breeze (vabreeze.com) will be broadcasting events from around the festival including interviews from the Red Carpet, filmmaker and musician updates, and music from the selected bands and musical acts that will be participating in the juried events.

The Breeze highlights musicians from Central Virginia and has a listening audience throughout the U.S. and increasingly worldwide. Bringing regional music acts that are participating in the Festival into the daily rotation and in dedicated programming, The Breeze hopes to increase national listenership.

“Exposing RVA’s and our regional artist’s music to the broadest base possible, has been our primary goal at The Breeze. Just having a virtual stage where their music can be heard has been well received, but with the support of RIFF, that stage will broaden dramatically. The excitement of RIFF and it’s cultural significance for our city is something that we are honored to be able to bring to your home.”- Bud Myers, Virginia Breeze Broadcasting

 "The festival is thrilled to join hands with The Breeze as our Official Music Channel. They not only bring audiences music they want to hear, but they share a common vision of elevating the many brilliant artists we have here in Richmond by sharing their talent with the rest of the world." - Heather Waters, RIFF Founder & Producer
