Sweetgrass Music Years
In 2000, Aaberg began his own record label, Sweetgrass Music, through which he has since endeavored to produce music that "connects a global audience to the sweeping landscape of the West." Throughout his career, Aaberg has produced music that consistently translated Montana's farms, ranches, and native cultures into "musical concepts" and has "forged a unique keyboard style that paints an audible portrait of his home state." Philip also produces a public radio program "Of the West: Creativity and Sense of Place." www.ofthewest.net He received a Montana Governor's Award for the Arts and in 2011, received a Montana Arts Council Innovator Award. His score for "Class C: The Only Game in Town" was nominated for a regional Emmy. Philip and his wife, Patty, run Sweetgrass Music, the Great Northern Bed and Breakfast, the Westland Suite, and The Bin (recording studio).

Famous quotes containing the words music and/or years:
“Good music is very close to primitive language.”

Trying to learn to use words, and every attempt
Is a wholly new start, and a different kind of failure....”
