B.J. Snowden

Studio 360

BJ Snowden is a musician who’s earned a great following partly because of her surprising rhythms and unusual melodies — and partly because of the passion in her songs. Snowden trained in music, but it’s her rawness that appeals. Fred Schneider, of the band The B52s, tells Studio 360 why he loves BJ Snowden. Produced by Trey Kay.
