Angel Snow

Bio:

.. "Angel Snow's music is absolutely beautiful. When she sings I hold my breath." --Alison Krauss

"A mini-masterpiece." MusicRow magazine critic Robert K. Oermann on "These Days"

"Alison Krauss called me a few months ago to say she had just met an incredible singer and songwriter named Angel Snow. Believe me, when Alison praises someone, you listen! I love Angel's voice...and her songs are amazing. I believe she is a true artist." --acclaimed producer/label executive Steve Buckingham (Mindy Smith, Dolly Parton)

"Angel Snow has an ability to woo her audience with intensely brilliant lyrics and a smoldering alto." --Chattanooga Times Free Press

"The first time I saw Angel perform was on a very small, out-of-the-way stage at a very small, out-of-the-way little music festival in the hills of north Georgia. She stood out among the acts that day as a true original with a beautiful voice and, apparently, a great big ole heart. I immediately made plans to book her for our next summer's lineup and was overjoyed that I did...as was the audience that caught her show."--- Jeff Styles, WGOW/Chattanooga, and Riverbend Festival Talent Booker

The artistry of Angel Snow and Viktor Krauss is an exciting fusion of musical talents that takes the listener on an eclectic journey of contemporary folk, ambient, and rock stylings. Snow's sound brings a serene sophistication to Krauss' dark, cinematic backdrop. Pensive but heartfelt, their music weaves a tapestry of life experiences and vivid dreams, all brought to life by Snow's believable, aching alto.

Those who know bassist/composer Krauss primarily by his supporting roles with Bill Frisell, Lyle Lovett, Jerry Douglas, and scores of others, might be surprised by the range of his original music, captured on two major label solo releases. His debut "Far From Enough", reached No. 6 on the Billboard Contemporary Jazz chart and was followed by the successful release and aptly-named "II". When Krauss met singer-songwriter Snow in 2009 at the urging of his sister Alison Krauss, he discovered the perfect vocal and lyrical pairing for his acclaimed compositions. Snow and Krauss' co-writing has brought a new dimension to his already stellar career.

Angel Snow had only one solo album to her credit but was already attracting fans across the nation with her own brand of introspective modern folk. The Georgia native's soulful voice and honest lyrics seemed to be a tailor-made fit for Krauss' multifaceted musical personality. Her debut album "Fortune Tellers" was a critical success, yet offered only a glimpse of things to come from this extraordinarily talented songwriter.

Angel is currently working on her second album with Viktor Krauss producing. This collection of material is slated to be released in the fall of 2010. Read more: http://www.myspace.com/viktorkraussixzz0uLdP3jN3
