2024 Gig Guide
We are currently compiling the gig list from August 2024 onwards so if you are a promoter please send yours to us now via this link. There are only a few outstanding!
Artist Panels
Check out the acts now advertising on the website. If you need to book anyone check them out first. If you are an act you too could be advertising on this website and in our newsletters. Click here!
Add a shortcut to our website?
If you open Safari and go to https://countrymusicmagazine.net/login – log in and at the same time ask the device to remember you
Then go to home page (you must follow this route so the advertisement doesn’t block the home page – the ad doesn’t appear if you are logged in)
At the bottom of the screen you should see a square box with an up-arrow coming out of it
Click on it and swipe up until you see “Add to Home Screen”
Hey presto, you have single click access to the Cross Country website via that icon on your screen.
If Safari does stop you from opening up the Gig Guide properly (which it can), then ensure you have told the phone to use Chrome as the browser.
Any problems, keep working on it, or ask Google how to do it!
British Country Music Hall of Fame
We have been asked to consider various people for inclusion in the hall of fame and we shall give you more details later. If you also want to nominate someone then let us know.
