Submitted by bcorner on Fri, 02/01/2008 - 4:28am.

Welcome to the February issue of @The Cedar! A short month and a short newsletter, but lots of great acts, especially for, among other things,  fans of womens music with a string of top female artists throughout the month, fans of New Zealand artists, the Monsters of Folk drop in on Feb 10, CD releases for Ellis, Spaghetti Western String Company, and The Brass Kings, and the return of the 416 Club--a great community-focused time for musicians to connect with new audiences.

 

Please don't forget the Facebook Challenge --ends today at 2pm!
