SPRINGFIELD, Mo., Sept. 28 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- SLS International (OTC:SITI) (BULLETIN BOARD: SITI) announced today that multiple LS8695 column line arrays and 218EL subwoofers were used for the 2005 Greater Ozarks Blues Festival in Springfield, Missouri. The two-day event featured many notable performers, including blues music legend and recent inductee to the Rock n' Roll Hall of Fame, Buddy Guy. "The sound quality of the SLS audio system was unbelievable," stated Stan Melton, chairman of the Greater Ozarks Blues Festival. "The audience and musicians were blown away by the clear, crisp sound of the speakers. The people watching the show from the back of the grounds area felt as though they were standing directly in front of the stage. The staff was thrilled to have SLS as its official sound system this year, and certainly look forward to working with them in the future." Founded in 1997, the Greater Ozarks Blues Festival raises funds for the arts-related charities in Springfield. Originally started as a one-night event, the festival has grown steadily over the last few years. Attendance has reached an all time high this year with a crowd over 10,000 throughout the weekend, many which traveled from all over the U.S. to hear their favorite blues artists. This year's performers included the Tommy Castro Band, Rod Piazza and the Mighty Flyers, and Reba Russell. In addition to the two-day concerts, a "bluescrawl" took place in the Downtown Springfield nightclubs. "SLS was very excited to be included in the event," stated Rod Falconer, National Sales Manager for SLS. "The Greater Ozarks Blues Festival truly recognizes the art of playing the blues music. This event is even more highly regarded with all of the revenues going towards charities that involve artists and musicians. It's a great cause, and we were proud to be a part of it."
