AWESOME!"</em>. Discovering and signing Star &amp; Micey for Ei kind of happened like that. While on a grand adventure up to Toronto this Febuary for a highly successful week at Folk Alliance International for Gangstagrass our teams crossed paths with this amazing band, fell in love, and before we knew it were off to SXSW for 13 shows together. It's all history from there.&nbsp;</p>

Being no strangers&nbsp;of the conference circuit we were skeptical at first about this brand new conference yet, we realized within the first hour not only did they know what they were doing but that their conferences are the way of&nbsp;the future! The 100 hand selected and industry veteran participants couldn't stop raving about how great their highly interactive and perfectly scheduled event was the best conference they had ever participated in. We can't say enough nice things about this event and hope to participate again in the future. Thanks for including us Voice of the Brand and we can't wait for you to see this become the leading conference in the US!&nbsp;</p>

Everything Independent has signed tech company <a href="http://www.squarespace.com/">Squarespace</a> to help develop a new and amazing project. A music label signing a technology company how cool is that?!
