Owensboro named as a National Music City

Thanks to the Bluegrass Music Hall of Fame & Museum (formerly the International Bluegrass Music Museum) at Owensboro, Kentucky, for the news that the Select Traveler organisation has designated Owensboro as a National Music City, along with such centres as Macon, Georgia; Branson, Missouri; Cleveland, Ohio; and Seattle, Washington.

The Grand Opening of the BMHoF&M's new premises in Owensboro takes place a month from now: full details are on its website.
