Still time for an EWOB application

... but not quite as close as we thought. Thanks to 'Bluegrass in Ireland' for drawing attention to the fact that the deadline for band applications to play at the 19th EWOB Festival (5-7 May 2016) in the Netherlands has been extended to 15 December. An application form can be downloaded here.

The title of #1 European Bluegrass Band is currently held by the outstanding Czech band Monogram - regular Athy festival attenders will remember them sharing the top of the bill with Red Wine in 2004. A week ago their new album Take it easy was featured on Bluegrass Today, including a video clip (also on YouTube).
