The home of New Hampshire acoustic, roots, bluegrass, and folk music
Welcome to the home of NHAMA, the New Hampshire Acoustic Music Association. If you were searching for the National Hose Assemblies Manufacturers Association, use your back button. The people who organized and support NHAMA are on a mission to promote acoustic music across our state, increasing awareness of it among venue owners, promoters, and potential audiences. We want to give a one stop, state-wide platform:
- for performers to make themselves known and list their performances
- for venue owners to list their concerts and find new performers
- for recording studios, music stores, and radio stations to be known in the acoustic community
- for listeners to find acoustic music happenings throughout the state
