49 Special is a San Francisco based bluegrass band who perform original and traditional songs. Their diverse musical influences include country, blues, and traditional and progressive bluegrass. 49 Special blends traditional and modern influences to create an exciting sound that is uniquely their own.
"The key that set 49 Special apart was the flawlessness or their performance... They provided just the right amount of tension, artistry, beauty and talent in a well deserved win before a very appreciative audience" - CBA Bluegrass Breakdown "49 Special Takes Home the Gold at the 2009 Rockygrass Band Competition" written by Ted Siverman
"The best thing since sliced bread" - Pilsbury Dough Boy

Please submit your artist news and events to CountryHome Forum to help your artists to get well known better in Europe. If you do not have the time to submit your artist news and events by yourself, please send it me to: Ch.Lamitschka@t-online.de and I will submit them by myself to CountryHome Forum.
I know that many artists from North America don't have their music videos uploaded to German video websites. The most popular websites are MyVideo.de and ClipFish.de. That means your European audience does not have the chance to find them.
I understand that most of you don't speak German and are not able to upload videos because of the language barrier. If you would like me to upload your videos to the German video websites, please let me know.
Thanks
