Americana Music Festival promotes green initiatives
The Americana Music Association announced comprehensive and pragmatic greening initiatives to take place during their 2008 festival in Nashville. Not only will there be recycling, but there will be a daily schedule of panels at the conference devoted to green ways of living, touring and promoting.
Sam Bush will speak on the greening of the Telluride Bluegrass Festival, Kathy Mattea presenting highlights from “An Inconvenient Truth,” and the Duhks sharing their experiences on green touring, just to name a few. Nashville environmentalist Paula Larson coordinated recycling initiatives, in conjunction with the generous support of Metro Nashville Public Works. For several of these venues, this will be their first time recycling. Visit www.americanamusic.org.
