Hendersonville, Tenn. — BlueHighways TV (BHTV), the multi-platform network that explores the people, stories, traditions and music of America, announced today that it has signed a distribution agreement with JetBroadband. The company will begin rolling out BHTV to its Rustburg, Crewe, Wytheville, Redwood, Bedford, and Radford, Virginia cable systems in early February.

“The markets that JetBroadband serves are ideal for BlueHighways TV. Our original Americana programming will really resonate with their customers,” said Stan Hitchcock, Chairman and CEO of BHTV. “Roots music originated in the mountains of Virginia and West Virginia – the center of JetBroadband’s service area.”

“We added BlueHighways TV to our programming line-up because we saw the value of offering a channel that focuses on the culture and values that are the bedrock of the communities we serve,” said Dave Baum, President of JetBroadband. “Bluegrass and Gospel music and the Americana culture flourish in our coverage areas.”

BHTV’s original programming features roots music, including bluegrass, blues, folk, western, gospel and traditional country, outdoor adventure and agriculture, lifestyle, cooking, equestrian and a variety of other subjects valued by a wide and growing audience.
