Draft:Tangled Up in Blue
| Submission declined on 8 May 2024 by Dclemens1971 (talk). This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of music-related topics). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Tangled Up in Blue, or TUIB, is an all-gender undergraduate singing group at Yale University that performs American folk, bluegrass, and country music.[1] Founded in 1987,[2] TUIB is the only multi-instrumental singing group at Yale: the group's arrangements are built around guitar, banjo, mandolin, and fiddle parts.
TUIB performs frequently on campus and tours every March during Yale's spring break, most recently in Ireland.[3] The group also occasionally performs off-campus throughout the academic year, including at the Yale School of the Environment's annual Harvest Festival.[4]
History[edit]
Tangled Up in Blue was founded in 1987 by then-sophomore Nerissa Nields, who recruited nine students to form the group during the fall of 1987.[2] Once established on campus, TUIB expanded to a year-to-year average of sixteen members selected by audition. TUIB's early repertoire consisted largely of folk revival classics by artists like Peter, Paul and Mary, Paul Simon, and John Prine, but a number of blues, bluegrass, and country songs have since been added.[5]
