Songwriter, performer, broadcaster and bluegrass aficionado Niall Toner has been selected as the inaugural recipient of the European Bluegrass Music Association (EBMA) Personality of the Year Award.
With this project EBMA intends to recognise and acknowledge the past and present most influential European musicians, promoters, journalists, dj’s, luthiers, experts, etc. who contributed, and still contribute, in a relevant and significant way to establish or popularise the Bluegrass music genre in Europe, and to create a European Bluegrass scene and community.
The Award ceremony will take place during a concert on Saturday 16th March, as part of the 5th European Bluegrass Summit to be held in Prague.
