Calling all WOMEX, EFEx & AFO delegates… (the rest of you can look away if you like…)

If this is the first time you’ve seen a copy of fRoots, let us tell you a little bit about ourselves…

• We’re the world’s No. 1 independent folk, roots and world music magazine.

• We’ve published every issue on time for more than 38 years!

• We received the 2010 WOMEX Award For Professional Excellence.

• We’re hugely comprehensive, with more feature content, news, reviews and original

photography than most others in our field.

• We have desktop, laptop, iOS & Android tablet & mobile versions too.

• With far too much music and informa- tion out there on the internet, we’re the

essential guide, filter and buzz creator about new artists and styles.

• We are major supporters of independent artists, small labels and promoters, and have

special advertising rates tailored for them.

• You don’t need UK distribution to be reviewed: we cover anything that can be

bought anywhere over the net. For more about review policy see the FAQ page at frootsmag.com

Festivals!

• Each April issue has a huge free diary listing of over 500 folk, roots and world music festivals in the UK and Europe. It’s the most comprehensive out there, and our biggest issue annually.

• Copy date for 2018 is 13th February.

• Along with that reference diary is an advertising supplement: both are carried year round on mobile devices.

• We also print comprehensive listings on each month’s events in our news pages in

every issue. Make sure you keep us informed via news@frootsmag.com !
