Compass Records offers free downloads

Alison Brown of Compass RecordsCompass Records, the Nashville based label run by banjo player Alison Brown, has recently redesigned their website and is now offering one track each week as a free mp3 download.

The free track as of this writing is not from a bluegrass artist. Compass handles artists that fit in the americana/bluegrass genre, but also covers celtic, jazz, jam, and pop/adult-alternative. Judging by their artist roster I would only expect the free download to be from a bluegrass artist about once every 6-8 weeks, but it’s worth keeping an eye on it. You might find out about some music you weren’t aware of previously.
