Nashville's Dualtone has been an indie label with GRAMMY nominations and wins, such as the Lumineers and Guy Clark. Co-founder Scott Robinson spoke with Nashville Chapter in 2014 about what makes Dualtone different from the other labels. Their headcount is only about half a dozen, augmented by interns, and their departments such as Promotion and A&R might be the same but the whole department might be one staff and one intern. This lets them nurture artists over years, a step at a time, going for growth instead of needing hits.
