sonaBLAST! Records is a record label and publishing company located in Louisville, Kentucky. sonaBLAST! was established in 2002 by then New York-based film producer Gill Holland. After signing several artists, including Irish singer-songwriter Mark Geary, Holland moved himself and its operations to Louisville, where he and his small team, headed by long time ear X-tacy employee Jaxon Swain, have continued to unearth and support quality artists. sonaBLAST! Records’ catalog is much like its Louisville home: abundant in great art and true to its roots. Our artist repertoire crosses all genres, from Ben Sollee, a revelatory soul-singing cellist, to The Pass, young mavens of dance rock, to The Broken Spurs, stripped-down rock ‘n’ roll journeymen and much more. Our acts have recently been named on NPR’s All Things Considered (Cheyenne Marie Mize), placed on MTV’s Sixteen and Pregnant and Jersey Shore (The Pass, The Instruction and Lucky Pineapple), Lifetime’s Army Wives (Kelley McRae) and used in numerous independent films. Our offices are housed in the The Green Building, the ‘greenest’ commercial building in Kentucky, and we go the extra mile to practice environmental stewardship by using eco-friendly materials to print our albums.
