See and hear bluegrass in Europe (and more)

For readers in the USA, Kevin Lynch, of the Connecticut Bluegrass Music Association and U-H Radio Bluegrass on WWUH Radio, reports:

Announcing a first-ever group tour to Europe for the 10th European World of Bluegrass (EWOB) event held in the Netherlands. This event and its organizers have been awarded honors by the International Bluegrass Music Association for their decades of international bluegrass promotion.

It's their tenth anniversary and the headliner from the USA will be Rounder Records recording artists, Danny Paisley & the Southern Grass. Up to two other artists from the USA will appear, plus 40+ other groups from all over the globe!

In addition to the EWOB event, the tour includes two nights in historic Amsterdam (incl. a wine-&-cheese evening canal cruise of the city). See the details at this link.

Fully escorted tour runs May 14 - 20, 2007. Group participants limited to 20 people. Flights need to be booked well in advance in order to get the lowest prices. You are welcomed to arrange any time frame for your return and/or departure flights... spend as much time as you wish while you're there.

Disclaimer: This trip has been organized by my sister Kim (an independent travel agent). She is offering this initial Bluegrass Tour to EWOB at cost. We won't see these prices again.

See you in Amsterdam...
