Brassland

Brassland is a New York-based artist-operated record label that was started in 2001 by twin brothers/musicians Aaron and Bryce Dessner from The National. With a passion for promoting innovative and boundary-pushing music, Brassland has become known for its diverse roster of talented artists.
Since its inception, Brassland has been dedicated to supporting independent musicians and fostering creativity within the industry. The label prides itself on providing a platform for emerging artists to showcase their unique sound and artistic vision.
With roots firmly planted in the vibrant music scene of New York City, Brassland continues to curate an impressive catalog of releases that span various genres including indie rock, folk, experimental, and electronic. Their commitment to quality music has earned them a reputation as one of the most respected labels in the industry.

Bryce Dessner is widely known as the guitarist for The National. Those a little more in the know are aware of Bryce's work in performance projects (such as The Long Count) and classical composition (including his work with Brassland label artists Clogs). Music NOW was founded in 2006 as a way for Bryce to explore all facets of his artistic interests and has served as a collaborative laboratory that provides a friendly and supportive audience for internationally renowned artists. Through the years, Dessner has guided Music NOW to become the premiere event for blurring the imagined lines that divide musical genres—a kind of laboratory where superstars could collaborate and grow. now comes the compilation 'Music NOW: 10 Years'. The first track 'Trials, Troubles, Tribulations' gets at the spirit of the compilation and the event. It is an American bluegrass gospel song written by Estil C. Ball. Here it is performed by Sounds of the South, a project featuring Justin Vernon (Bon Iver, Volcano Choir), Sharon Van Etten, Megafaun, Matthew E. White, and Fight the Big Bull. The 16 track live album also highlights festival-only surprises like Fleet Foxes' leader Robin Pecknold playing the traditional song 'Silver Dagger' for the first time, the debut performance of Grizzly Bear's 'While You Wait for the Others', the premiere of Sufjan Stevens' 'The Owl and The Tanager', as well songs featuring Owen Pallett, Colin Stetson, Bonnie 'Prince' Billy, Justin Vernon, Sharon van Etten, Tinariwen and Dirty Projectors. It is a definitive who's who of today's creative independent music scene.
