IBMA offering discount on new Professional Memberships during April

If you’re not currently a member of the International Bluegrass Music Association (IBMA) and consider yourself “professionally” involved in the world of bluegrass, now is the time to think about joining.

The IBMA is currently offering year long memberships at a 35% discount for new members who qualify under the professional membership designation. The normal price is $70 dollars for a professional individual membership but during the month of April new members can get a year-long membership for $45.

To join the IBMA call 1-888-438-4262 or visit the IBMA website.

Membership in the IBMA can benefit you several ways including:

• You have a voice…voting on the IBMA Awards and leadership elections, participation in meetings and shaping decisions.
• Critical information…through online and print publications, educational events, forums and research that help focus on the best opportunities and what’s new.
• Key connections…personal contacts you need with people anxious to engage with you at IBMA events and through our extensive databases.
• Promotions…opportunities to see and be seen by the people and companies that make decisions and can help foster your success.

As a Bluegrass Broadcaster, IBMA membership has proven to be a very valuable tool in my career. Not only do I have access to the latest industry news through the IBMA Newsletter and website, but I find that networking with other association members is the best way to advance Bluegrass Music in so many different ways. Being an IBMA member definitely makes my job easier! Cindy Baucom, Knee-Deep In Bluegrass, Charlotte, NC
