Add to My Profile | More VideosJBTV is a Chicagoland television institution. For over twenty years, JBTV and its creator/host, Jerry Bryant, have showcased the best in alternative, independent and local music videos, interviews, and exclusive live and in-studio performances. Playing host to many of the biggest names in modern rock history, JBTV has served as not only the last source for modern music television in Chicago, but one of the only remaining examples of our proud tradition of local programming.Motivated only by his love for music and a strong determination to introduce overlooked artists to his loyal viewers, Jerry has produced and aired JBTV for over two decades and still remains true to his roots.
With the progressive switch to high definition (HDTV) and the recent introduction of a state-of-the-art live soundstage, JBTV is faced with new and exciting opportunities everyday. "What's nice about a live concert is they're not technically perfect, and those little things that happen make the magic," says Jerry.With a staggering assortment of over 5,000 music videos and interviews, JBTV never fails to offer its viewers new episodes each and every week.------------------------------------------------------- -----------------------------
The hard work of JBTV has not gone unnoticed:
- Billboard: Best Modern Rock Program ('93 & '95)
- Regional Emmy: Outstanding Achievement, Entertainment Programming ('95)
- Nationwide Insurance: On Your Side Awareness Award ('96)
- Drunk Driving Awareness ('95 & '01)
- Chicago Music Awards: Best Music Video Show (2005)
------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------
JBTV has become a legendary show that the people of Chicago have come to love and respect. So please show your love and catch Jerry three nights a week.
