I'd just like to point out that Ian Hogarth has the face of a man.


long live the YC PR machine.

having said that, there is real substance behind songkick. pete and ian are plenty talented.


not forgetting (drum-roll) Michelle, Dr. Philip, Wynne, Lee & latest recruit Mr Dan Lucraft ;-)


Songkick rocks period.


Is YC scoring all these PR hits? Or is it the individual startups?


80-90% the individual startups (including in this case).

One reason there seem to be so many YC-funded startups in the news is that there are just so many of them. Maybe also that the YC brand is starting to be known by reporters.


they are good citizens too - big up for the YC News meetup last Friday :-)


Good stuff guys. Always good to see more London love :-)


Great positive article for London guys, London is after all the center of the world when it comes to music !!! So Silicon valley needs London's inspiration or we will all be forced to be in bowling alleys on Saturday nights... hehe

Congrats guys
