* With EXCLUSIVE cover feature on the new Chieftains/ Ry Cooder San Patricio album

Tuesday 9th February: final booking deadline (an email to ads_at_frootsmag_dot_com is best), and target date for receipt of all adverts.

Friday 12th February: last date for late ad delivery by email!

Publication date is 18th March. Subscribers will start to receive theirs from around 13th March.

* Our April issue always carries our extensively researched diary listings of hundreds of roots, folk and world music festivals taking place across the UK and mainland Europe, plus a huge festival advertising supplement. The resulting demand means that it has an expanded print run and is kept, bought and referred to throughout the whole year (including by many other media people). It's our biggest issue each year - both physically and sales-wise.

* All advertisers benefit from the popularity of this issue, but if you're a festival promoter then as well as your free diary listing the supplement also gives you a chance to advertise artist bills, attractions, facilities etc in much more graphic detail at the very time of year when audiences are making their plans. In the crowded modern festival calendar, you can't afford to be missing impact in the leading source of information.

And don't forget:

* We have maximum 28 percent crossover readership with any other music magazine. With fRoots you really do reach the committed folk, roots and world music audience and opinion-formers that no other magazine gets to.

FREE NEWS LISTINGS: We list information on April events in the news section of this issue. We need it by Thursday 18th February. Send your full press release to news_at_frootsmag_dot_com  If you have hi-res (300ppi) colour JPEGs of artists participating, send them to copy_at_frootsmag_dot_com
