Gentlemen, I have a favor to ask. My crazy cousin, a musician, e-mailed me his press-release asking me to check the grammar, the punctuation, the style, etc. Well, my English is not bad, but I'm not a native speaker. Would you be so kind and help me here?
Here is the press-release:

"“B G” – is an alliance of two musicians from St. Petersburg, Russia.
V. G. is a guitar player, an arranger, a composer, and a songwriter.
Hailed 5 times as one of the best musicians of Russia by several musical magazines, he has participated in the following bands: Cascade Studio, Mikhail Kostyushkin’s Quartet, Tony Monopoly Group (the UK), Tele U, Recital, Rendezvous, SUS (USA-Russia) and has worked as a sound producer for many Russian and European pop-stars, including Alla Pugacheva, Larisa Dolina, No Angels.
The song written by V.G. hit Russian and European charts more than once. “New day” has reached a 2nd place in French charts.
I.B., a singer, a pianist, a composer, and a songwriter has worked with various band in Russia as well as in the US (Digest, Long Horn, Smirnoff) and has written songs for a number Russian pop-stars. Most recently he has performed in the musical by “Queen” “We Will Rock You” (Moscow version).
“B G” took part at the final casting show for the Eurovision international song contest twice.
The band’s songs are geared towards the English speaking audience.
At the moment the musicians are seeking a record company to sign a contract with.
They also consider the offers from other performers to work for.
V.G. and I.B. have a great deal of musical compositions to offer and tremendous potential.
They both are experienced live performers."

Thank you all in advance!

Caritas -

Very good, I have just changed things around a little to allow it to flow a bit better and read grammatically correct,

I have not added any more positive points because I don't know anything about them, but there may be things you could add if you have more information.

I hope this helps though
Chris
