ATO Quasi-Confirms Griffin

By Waldo Jaquith
In their first mention of her thus far, ATO Records is promoting a six-song EP that features all ATO artists, including singer-songwriter Patty Griffin. As we reported on September 25th, ATO Records intends to make Griffin the newest artist on their roster, but ATO is yet to confirm that. The other artists on the EP, which comes with David Gray's new DVD "Live at the Point," are Gov't Mule, David Gray, Ben Kweller and Chris Whitley. ATO Records was founded early last year by Dave Matthews, Coran Capshaw, Michael McDonald and Chris Tetzeli.
