* Sam Red at Roxy Jam 2010 *

Since 2006, each summer, Roxy Jam in Biarritz blends surfing, art and music in unique and unforgettable way. Main focus of this event is ASP Women’s World Longboard Championship, won this year by Cori Schumacher, American surfer. However there was lots of other stuff happening in the Roxy Town on the Basque Coast in Biarritz. With Roxy Charity Shop that was selling vintage Roxy clothes as well as autographed surfboards; Art Tent with Roxy Second Wave, art exhibition with focus on recycling; collection of pro surfboards brought together by Lee-Ann Curren, to be auction to support her charity Titanzinho and I love boobies (Keep a breast) campaign, and few other sponsor tents, you couldn’t feel bored even if you wanted to. Bigger problem was how to manage to enjoy, see everything in few days, and do some media work as well . One other great thing was that media area was located on the perfect place to watch the competition and it was always busy and packed with people giving interviews, photographing event  or just hanging around. It was my first year to review Roxy Jam and I have to say that I felt really spoiled with all the goodies (free surf classes with pro teachers included ), a fabulous treatment and one excellent organization. The music side of event, always in tune with current times and one of my main reasons to go to this event was as cool as expected. And being that events were free of charge it felt that Roxy wasn’t only spoiling me or other media people but the whole Biarritz as well. There were two major music events: On 10th of July, Australian born, model-turned-singer Micky Green, now based in Paris, followed by all-female French rock band The Plastiscines rocked the stage set up on Port Vieux Beach. On 13th of July, the Beaurivage parking lot just above Roxy Jam town turned into fabulous music venue with an awesome vibe. Making sure to make everybody dance from sunset into the night, this event was supported by excellent female DJs: Sam Red, Estelle S. and DJ Chloe. The only down point of my Roxy Jam experience was that I came to late to set up an interview with Micky Green and The Plastiscines, but luckily I’ve caught up with one amazing DJ and very charming Sam Red, winner of the Next Girl DJ competition, sponsored by JBL and Roxy and also with Ashley Douglas, PR manager for JBL and the mastermind behind the competition. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- To hear these interviews, mix from Sam Red and selected tunes from Micky Green and The Plastiscines tune in tonight (Monday 20.09.2010) for Gimme A Beat and
