Artist Information Biography "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) "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 When Angel Snow sings, she hands her heart to the listener. Onstage she pours out raw emotion through honest and introspective music. Her unique sound--classic Americana folk coupled with a modern edge--provides a soulful backdrop for lyrics based on everything from personal experiences to vivid dreams. "I want to relate to people in their most vulnerable state; to inspire people most scarred," she says. The result of this heartfelt songwriting is a labor of love, her debut album, Fortune Tellers. Angel settled in Nashville to continue running down her lifelong dream of sharing her music. She had spent five years traveling and performing all over the country, her voice bringing to life venues in New York, Wyoming, Montana, Pennsylvania, California, Chattanooga, and Atlanta. Musical talent came naturally and easily to Angel growing up in tiny Chickamauga, Georgia. It was an elementary school homework assignment to write a song that gave her a first glimpse at her life's path. Songwriting soon grew to be Angel's most passionate artistic outlet. She recalls, "It was the only way I could truly know and find out who I was. The only way I could express myself. It's everything to me." At age 15 she began playing guitar and putting music with the lyrics she had been working on for years. In high school Angel started playing in talent competitions and anywhere else she was given the opportunity. Angel, the youngest of three siblings, was named by her older brothers, who were five and three when she was born. Growing up, her brothers influenced her love for all kinds of music with their own varied tastes. While one brother liked Sarah MacLachlan and classical music, the other brother brought home CDs by Faith No More and The Cure. Angel was influenced by all these styles and continues to embrace all genres, listing Tom Waits, Robert Smith, Thom Yorke, Otis Redding and Frank Black as her own favorite musicians.
