* * *

IN SUPPORT OF THEIR NEWLY RELEASED 'BLUE IS FOR GIRLS', THE GEMZ ALSO SIGNED CDS @ PURE GIRLS CLUB IN PLEASANTON

Florida-based pop group  The Gemz are dazzling their west coast fans at Kidsfaires across California. The tween group performed at Kidsfaire in Pleasanton , CA  on September 23rd and 24th, and are set to rock the stage twice each day on October 7th and 8th at Kidsfaire in Costa Mesa, CA. Kidsfaire, America 's Family Expo, brings together the very best family entertainment, acres of attraction, interactive pavilions, and miles of fun. For more information about Kidsfaire and its scheduled attractions, check out thekidsfaire.com . While in Pleasanton, The Gemz also dropped by Pure Girls Club to meet fans and sign CDs. 

The hot five-member teen and pre-teen powerhouse group  just recently finished their summer northeast tour in support of Blue Is For Girls , which dropped nationally on June 6, 2006.

With their inimitable blend of exciting vocals, vibrant personalities and a fully choreographed live show—not to mention that magic, intangible “it” factor--The Gemz have achieved something few groups their age have: being cool and cutting edge enough to win over their own generation, while also winning a fan base of parents who just can't resist them and the positive spirit they convey.

In just three short years, The Gemz—whose lineup includes Samantha (16), Carlie (15), Sarah (14), Margaux (13), and Sammi Jack (11)—have truly become role models for their evergrowing fan base. They have performed hundreds of shows in dozens of cities coast to coast. They've entertained audiences for both Radio Disney and trade shows; have been featured on several TV shows including "Wifeswap" and MTV's "PoweR Girls"; have sung at prestigious sporting events, charity events, malls, record stores and, maybe the most fun for them, summer camps across the Northeast.

The title track, a true teen empowerment anthem for the current generation, and a cover of "Bop To The Top" (from the hit show "High School Musical") are already available for downloading at iTunes. "Blue Is For Girls" asserts that not all girls need to be pretty in pink, that it's important to be what you want to be and not let people influence you to be something you're not.
