Angel Snow


Angel Snow is appropriately named, she has the voice of an angel, not to mention she is very easy on the eye.
Just one listen to any of her songs and you are hooked.
And on a personal note, I can't wait for August and the release of her new CD.
So what better way to while away a Sunday afternooon than to kick back and listen to some Angel Snow.
The highest caliber of artistry is often intertwined with the deepest sincerity. As is the case with rising star Angel Snow, whose music is the truest and most honest reflection of her life. Snow’s music is nothing if not sincere. Combine this honesty with sweeping folk melodies and bluesy guitar riffs, and the result is the captivating landscape of sound found on her new self-titled album.With a major boost from acclaimed star Alison Krauss, Snow’s lifelong dreams are coming to fruition. Krauss and Union Station recorded three songs written by Snow for the deluxe edition of the band’s latest album. “She felt like her brother Viktor and I would have cool creative chemistry. She was right on, because a week later Vik and I wrote the song ‘Lie Awake’ on our first meeting." In the two years since meeting Viktor they have written dozens of songs and started work on Snow’s sophomore album, which will be released later this fall.
"Angel Snow's music is absolutely beautiful. When she sings I hold my breath." -- Alison Krauss
Now that is praise indeed coming from the undisputed Queen of Americana.

We have to have the song named for my state.
