Note: We define a 'Band' as a duo, trio, etc., that plays and/or
sings mostly Bluegrass music and/or is identifiably a
Bluegrass outfit using  standardBluegrass instrumentation.

Please read all this before applying below for a link:

We do not want to waste our visitors' time by sending them to non-bluegrass sites. Because we receive many requests for links which do not really help our aims and objectives and/or are from organisations whose main interest is not Bluegrass, and to help minimise work, NWBN has formulated the following policy:

1. Overseas National/State Bluegrass Music Associations or equivalent will be listed on the Links Page (a reciprocal link is reuired). This does not include organisations that are really clubs.
     
2. British bands will be listed in the Band Directory
    
3. Only British festivals will be listed (on the Festivals Page) plus selected ones in mainland Europe and Eire that our members are likely to attend.
   Note: Overseas Associations already list festivals held in their own countries.
    
4. Festival entries: If a link is available only very brief details will be included; it is the reponsibility of the Festival to keep its' own website updated.
    
5. Any British Bluegrass (or essentially Bluegrass or very closely allied - e.g., the FOATMAD association) site will be listed, on the Links Page. A reciprocal link will be required.
    
6. Outside the UK: Overseas clubs, sessions, gigs, etc., will not be listed.
    
7. Online Magazines carrying editorial content of potential interest to British readers will be listed. Magazines online essentially to advertise subscriptions will not be listed (but see 9 below).
    
8. Commercial organisations might be listed on the links page, but probably not
    
9. A reciprocal link will ALWAYS be required

All organisations listed must provide correct information and be responsible for keeping it up-to-date. Broken links will be removed.
