Label X is putting on a showcase of their own, similar to the Home Grown Series, only that its solely Label X bands. All bands on the Label X “label” are from Louisville. Label X is owned & operated by Todd Smith, and he is doing amazing things for the Louisville Music scene and I think can really be someone who can put Louisville on the map from a musical perspective. I think it’s important that while Production Simple is bringing artists from around the world to our backyard to let us know them, and our city is getting put on the map in that way, Todd and Label X are leading that push to show that more than just a place where other artists want to play, we’re a play where artists are born and inspired. I think people aer starting to take notice. I recall back in college I hired the Muckrakers for an event, and now I’ve heard them on television shows because Hollywood is interested in licensing their music. Label X is pushing the music scene forward and I think is in many ways the face of the new music industry. Rather than being so much a label, these guys operate more as a collective and as things in the industry continue to change, I think you will find that these guys in our own backyard were an important force behind that change.
