JMB Record$, South Florida's ultimate record label, known throughout the music
industry for its impressive contacts amongst a variety of bands, from up and coming
artists to some of the biggest names in the music scene, announces today the
signing of Chris Georggin, manager of world famous pop-punk bands Blink-182
and New Found Glory, to their label.

Georggin has been part of Rick Devoe Management since 1999, managing
both Blink-182 and New Found Glory on some of their biggest records and biggest
tours, including Blink's "Enema of the State" and NFG's "Sticks and Stones."
Chris also had a huge hand in the planning and development of such tours as the
Co-headlining Blink-182/No Doubt Summer 2004 tour and the New Found Glory/Green
Day "American Idiot" Fall 2004 tour. Chris' great experiences within the music
industry, both in and out of the studio have inspired him to sign with JMB
RECORD$ and make his dream a reality.

" I never thought that the songs I messed around with would one day
lead to me actually signing with a label, and it is so unbelievably
cool that JMB has the confidence in me and provided me with this
incredible opportunity. I have known the Grushka brothers for a number
of years and I couldn't think of a better situation for me, my music
and for living out my dream, " said Chris Georggin in regards to
signing with JMB RECORD$.

Georggin's yet untitled debut album will be influenced by rock, punk,
hip-hop and may even include some cover songs. New Found Glory drummer
Cyrus Bolooki will produce the record, and special musical guests are
expected to appear on the album. Georggin plans to head into the studio
this Spring, although no release date has been set. More information on
Chris Georggin and the progress of his debut album can be viewed at
www.chrisgeorggin.com.

JMB Record$ was established by Jarett and Dr. Nevin Grushka, brothers
of New Found Glory bassist, Ian Grushka in the Fall of 2003. The
brothers both tired of their day jobs, decided to combine their love of
music and their knowledge of the local scene, and started a label to
help the "little guy." Chris Georggin will join electrifying rock
n' roll quintet Fallen From The Sky and internationally acclaimed,
"grave rockers" Death Becomes You on JMB Record$, among others. JMB Record$
is committed to building the careers of up and coming artists, and
seeks out talented individuals with drive, dedication, and passion for
the music. For more visit information www.jmbrecords.com
