The CBA’s webmaster Rick Cornish says they’ve  “…been running the feature for six weeks now and it's done a lot to boost traffic.”  He added that the posted items are “very quirky and off beat.”

Face-Lift for Prescription Bluegrass!

We’re not as old as some but we have undergone a procedure to give a new sparkle to our appearance.   So far in our test audience, the reviews are mixed.  Some like it and some prefer the “Older Look.”

New Website for Gospel Bluegrass

A few weeks ago we told you to be watching for a brand new website dedicated to Bluegrass Gospel.  Well it’s here.  Blessed Bluegrass is a sister site to NationalBluegrass.com and like them it is a membership site.   Memberships are free but at present the site is still growing and needs your help.

New Website Bundles Venues, Bands and Fans

www.nationalbluegrass.com is a relatively new website with an interesting concept. We first discovered the site after The Gold Sisters sent us a note that they were in the running for a new award that we’d not heard about. In researching the site, we discovered that there are actually five bluegrass bands all competing for something called the B.O.R.N. Award. (Volume Five, Monroeville, The Hillbenders, and Blue Moon Rising round out the other four).  Last month’s award winner was Frank Solivan and Dirty Kitchen.
