Bottleneck Music is an artist-run company that supports the innovative resophonic and slide-guitar movement that is emerging from the Midwest today.

Following in the footsteps of hometown pioneers like Dave Ray, Greg Brown, Bob Dylan and Pat Donohue, our musicians merge traditions like Blues, American Roots, Progressive Folk, and World music styles into a sound all their own.

Whether you're a music fan or a music industry professional, we think you'll find that our musicians are not only talented but also ground-breaking.

Bottleneck Music works to grow our musical community in a number of ways:

• Booking performances and showcases

• Releasing compilation CDs

• Helping fans discover new music

• Sharing contacts and resources among musicians

• Increasing visibility and recognition for musicians

• Giving fans a stake in their musical community
