European Bluegrass Directory, 2010/2011

Dear bluegrasser,

Every two years the EBMA edits a directory containing useful bluegrass contacts in Europe: bands, clubs, festivals, luthiers, promoters, radios, associations, publications... It is now time to prepare the 2010 update.

I'm looking for people in every European country who can help updating the data of their region. The idea is to start from the data of last issue. I have those in excel files in which you can update, add, and delete the data you know.

If you're interested in helping, reply to this message NOW. All suggestions are welcome. Thanks in advance!

The EBMA website says: 'The European Bluegrass Directory is now in daily use by many musicians, business people and fans throughout the European bluegrass community and the USA. It stands as a symbol for the vitality and the growing interest in bluegrass in Europe and especially bluegrass played by European people - bluegrass with that special touch. Europe's own brand of bluegrass is getting more popular and we should be proud of it!'

The directory is distributed free of charge; and to keep it so, advertisers are needed. If you or someone in your area are in a position to support the EBMA, don’t hesitate: sign up for an ad in the directory and sell some ads in your area.
