Subscribe to the channel for Rounder Records new releases and it's vibrant history. “Rounder began in the humblest of circumstances, a partnership collectively owned and operated by the three founders. The original impetus was simple: There were records they thought should exist, but nobody else was putting them out. So they decided to do it themselves. … Rounder left a profoundly important mark on the landscape of American music, because its founders had a larger vision also encompassing politics, culture, and lifestyle as well as music. … And because Rounder put out so much music with only one real criterion — ‘Do we like this?’ — Rounder didn’t simply keep vintage musical traditions alive but helped broaden and define them. Thank goodness Irwin, Leighton Levy, and Nowlin rambled like they did. Their curiosity, instinct, and passion, and their willingness to release a broad range of music, shaped the music we today call Americana in such an off-hand way. Rounder’s genius was to give J.D. Crowe & the New South, George Thorogood, Norman Blake, Hazel Dickens and Alice Gerrard, Robert Plant, and Alison Krauss, among many others, rooms in the same big house, whose walls were permeable." -DAVID MENCONI
