http://www.frootsmag.com


Deadline: Friday 16th April!

Publication date is 20th May. Subscribers will start to receive theirs from around 15th May.

*  The UK's folk scene has produced an exceptional crop of young artists in recent years, and some are now racing ahead with amazing work. On our cover this month, Emily Portman with her recent album The Glamoury of extraordinary new songs based in the spooky old traditions. Just one of many great features on music new and old from here and everywhere in the June issue, along with our unrivalled news coverage, extensive reviews and much more.

*  Festivals! Our recent giant annual April Festival issue confirmed the buoyancy of the scene to which fRoots has been central and supportive for so many years. Festival organisers have been kind to tell us of audience research which shows that of all the mags they advertise in, fRoots is the one which easily produces the best results for ticket sales and event awareness. And of course we've often been the first to enthuse audiences about many of the artistsŠ


THE DIGITAL EDITION & THE STUDENT AUDIENCE

We launched a full digital edition of fRoots last summer as an economic subscription alternative and it has been drawing interest and subscribers from all over the world. See a full free-view demo version of a digital back issue via our web site front page http://www.frootsmag.com . Now we are making fRoots even more attractive to the huge new young audience for folk, roots & world music by announcing a hugely discounted student subscription deal - 75% off the normal digital rate (and 35% off the paper version)!

* All adverts that appear in the print edition of fRoots are carried in identical form in the digital edition AT NO EXTRA COST, including working web links on all adverts of 1/4 page size and above


See http://www.frootsmag.com/content/ads/ads-info/
for rates & discounts, sizes, technical specs, stats etc.

See http://www.frootsmag.com/shop/sub/ for secure subscribing on line.


And remember:

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

* Don't think of fRoots as a purely UK magazine. We take you around the world - 40 percent of our readership is outside the UK. And this worldwide readership - who buy on average more than 50 CDs each a year! - is incredibly internet-wise: you don't need UK or international export distribution in order to sell to them.


FREE NEWS LISTINGS: We list information on June events in the news section of this issue. We need it by Wednesday 21st April. 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
