U.K. Bluegrass Site is Changing

Image635066242264780748Prescription Bluegrass has learned that a very popular bluegrass site for fans in the United Kingdom is undergoing some serious redesign.

A message from the host explains:

After almost seven years we can no longer run the site the way we have in the past. However, we are very aware that ukbluegrass has proven to be a valuable resource over the years, so rather than abandoning the site completely, we are changing it to keep the best features. The changes will include:

  • - a redesign of the site
  • - removing the regular news stories and updates
  • - changing the listings to major events only: we will continue to list all festivals, picking weekends and similar events. Tours and other small scale one-off gigs will no longer be listed. You are more than welcome to post news of such gigs in the forum.
  • - a greater emphasis on occasional, bigger updates such as major announcements, interviews, reviews, videos etc.

Normally you can view the site through ukbluegrass.com or ukbluegrass.co.uk, however Prescription Bluegrass was unable to verify at the time of this posting.  We expect that the site is being maintained to effect the proposed changes and inoperable temporarily.

We did find TWITTER and FACEBOOK sites for the group however.
