Snakefarm - A global label focussing on new and recognised names within the worlds of Country, Blues, Americana and Roots Rock music, with special reference to the heavier side of Country and Blues.
An imprint under the Spinefarm Music Group banner, Snakefarm is set up as a home for music based on authenticity and emotion; music underpinned by a strong musical legacy, plus a core set of values and beliefs.
With more Country acts touring internationally, and the music itself on the rise, locking horns with other genres and styles, the time is right for pre-conceptions to be put aside and a bold new world embraced, a world where quality and the ability to connect are the defining factors.
And if it’s guitars that primarily illuminate your life, then Southern Rock, Country, Blues, Americana, etc. are perfect areas to explore, being rich with great players (old and new) and often featuring multiple-guitar line-ups. (It’s been mentioned that every Southern Rock album should close with an extended guitar work-out that only comes to a close when either the grooves or the highway run out).
Says Snakefarm’s Dante Bonutto:-
“There’s so much growth and movement in Country Music right now, and Snakefarm is here to spotlight, celebrate and help to drive forward all of the exciting things that are going on. As well as working with new artists and acts, including names from the UK, the label will be re-issuing classic titles and generally planting a flag within the ‘real music’ domain – a domain where Nashville, arguably the music world’s most influential city, now represents a true global brand.”
