ATO RECORDS

ATO Records (According To Our Records) is a record label committed to artists and building their careers. Founded in 2000 by Dave Matthews and manager Coran Capshaw, the label roster boasts an extraordinary artist community including King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard, Black Pumas, Nick Hakim, My Morning Jacket, Alabama Shakes, Rodrigo Y Gabriela, Hurray For The Riff Raff, Drive-By Truckers, Primus, and many more. As a truly independent label, ATO is steadfast in its commitment to building career artists.

RCA recording artist Dave Matthews and longtime manager Coran Capshaw are exploring the other side of the music-business equation with the launch of an independent label, According To Our (ATO) Records, that aims to cultivate a small, handpicked roster of “career artists”.

The imprint will be based in New York and distributed in North America by BMG, which also handles Dave Matthews Band projects. Michael McDonald, who has been the band’s tour manager for the last six years, and fellow Dave Matthews Band associate Chris Tetzeli will run the label on a day-to-day basis.
