East of Enon(tm) - Calling All Folkies and Acoustic or Traditional Artists

Because we're interested in promoting traditional and acoustic music, we are gathering the contact information of other folks who have similar interests, especially folks in our region (southwest Ohio). Hopefully we can keep each other informed of things like festival opportunities, places NOT to play, and so on.

If you want to be in our database but you also want to be considered for membership for the East Of Enon? musical collaboration, please use our Candidates page - we'll still add you to the same database.

However, if you're interested in being in our database, but DON'T want to join up with our ensemble, at least at this time, this is the page to use.

Benefits of Sharing - why would you want to be in our database? Quite a few acoustic musicians and artists in the region have followings they've worked hard to achieve. However I think we can be stronger together and make more of an impact for acoustic music in general if we keep in better touch.

And please stay in touch!

How To Help Us Promote Traditional Music for Free: If you find our tips, explanations, and recommendations helpful when picking out a product, and you appreciate that we don't continually inconvenience you with irrelevant ads or obnoxious popups, Please Bookmark This Page and come back through it when you're ready to order. In some cases - not all - we get a very small portion of your purchase price, all of which goes to supporting our sites. Ironically, if you don't come through our page, someone else like Facebook or the Weather Channel will usually get that "fee" anyway. In the meantime, it costs you nothing. We never see who placed the order, so you don't have to worry about us pestering you with followup e-mails or some such. But it helps us know what pages our readers find useful, and it helps our advertisers know who to support.

And that, in turn, helps us provide more useful resources. Thank you!
