Old-time trio booked for Dunmore East festival
Thanks again to FOAOTMAD for the news that Sara Grey, Kieron Means, and Ben Paley - who begin a six-day tour this coming Saturday night - will be back in Ireland for (at least) 28-30 August 2009, as they will be playing at the 15th Guinness International Bluegrass Festival at Dunmore East, Co. Waterford. For further info (as with everything to do with the Dunmore East festival), contact Mick Daly for details: +353 (0)51 878832 or +353 (0)87 2562899, or e-mail.

And thanks yet again to FOAOTMAD for news of internet info that should be of value to some of our readers: one is a news story about the Field Recorders Collective, who make field recordings of old-time musicians available on CD; another is a new site for women guitar players, called 'Girls with Guitars', with a welcome from Marcy Marxer.
