“To cap off what has been a huge year for independent music, likeZEBRA will be revealing our top 15 artists, why we chose them, and links for fans to stream their music,” says Jon Taggart, Director of A&R for likeZEBRA.  “It is so rewarding to witness how likeZEBRA’s promotional tools and our weekly featured artists inspire the careers of so many amazing independent musicians. What better way to pay tribute than a blog featuring the best of the best?”

As if music exclusives and giveaways from top independent artists weren’t enough, likeZEBRA also recently held the liveZEBRA 2010 concert, headlined by double-platinum, Grammy-nominated band, Everclear.  The concert was held in association with Music Connection and benefited the charitable organization, Music Saves Lives.  With a star-studded turnout and a monumental musical lineup, liveZEBRA 2010 was deemed the independent music event of the year.

“liveZEBRA 2010 exceeded everyone’s wildest expectations,” said Taggart.  “The artists who played were so incredible. 2011 will be an amazing year for the liveZEBRA concert series. We have so many fresh ideas to get started on in the coming year: new features, new bands, and many more live showcases.”
