Montana singers provide "hold" music for state government

"Now, when I get put on hold – and absolutely, I get put on hold – I whistle," Governor Schweitzer http://governor.mt.gov/ said. "I whistle along."

The state of Montana is putting Blackfeet singer-songwriter Jack Gladstone’s musical career on hold.

No, really.

Hundreds of times a day, when someone calls the state and gets put on hold – and, friends, you often get put on hold – the music people hear is Gladstone’s.

He’s one of five Montana artists whose music is featured on the state phone system’s "hold music," although Gladstone – a personal favorite of Gov. Brian Schweitzer – has the most music in the rotation.
