I don't think there is a website with the names of past winners. I have a few articles on my blog for the last couple years about NERFA.   I will see if I can dig up some info for you.

If you have any questions, please ask away.

Phil - I think we met in Nashville at the annual International Conference.   I've enjoyed sharing the CD's you gave me with my listeners. I really enjoy conferences like this because it gives me an opportunity to hear new music and see performers that I play on my radio show and many that I've booked at the Hurdy Gurdy.

However, I can see the frustration an artist must have. With so many artists showing up and performing, it is a challenge to find the right people you want to connect with, but the good thing about NERFA and Folk Alliance is that the opportunity exists to make those connections and to learn a few things. I don't recommend it for everyone - with travel and such it can be expensive, but depending on what you are looking to get out of it and how you approach the conference, it can be very rewarding.
