IBMA has announced that the Bluegrass Directory 2006 will be available on January 1, 2006. The directory includes attendees of the 2005 World of Bluegrass, IBMA members, publication advertisers, and other contacts. Anyone who was a full-attendee of the 2005 event should receive one in the mail by January 1, 2006. If you didn’t attend the event you can still purchase the directory for $30 directly from IBMA. It appears they aren’t offering it online (the 2004 directory is available on their website), but you can call IBMA directly to order your copy. The number is 888-438-4262.

Alternately, a searchable version of the directory is available online in the member services section of the ibma.org website.
