W.E. Fest is a five day, totally DIY, volunteer-run extravaganza that always takes place during the week of Memorial Day Weekend.  Despite being small, homespun and intentionally under the radar for the past decade, W.E. Fest has garnered an uncanny reputation for discovering new talent. Lamb Of God, Mae, The Dismemberment Plan, The Mooney Suzuki, Anthony Rossomando from The Dirty Pretty Things, Alison Mosshart from The Kills, Beefcake The Mighty from GWAR, James Hanna from Asobi Seksu, ASG, and many, many others are all W.E. Fest vets.

The first W.E. Fest was co-founded by current Senior Director and underground art punk Kenyata Sullivan in 1996 to showcase genuinely unknown talent and build community within the indie scene. Only small indie label and unsigned bands are allowed to play. Tickets are "intentionally ridiculous" at just $1 a day. This year the festival will make a return to its roots by also featuring films, zines, comics and other DIY arts projects.

Organic Entertainment is a boutique service firm, multi-tiered entertainment group and newly turned record label committed to the big picture growth of independent record labels and recording artists who compete for market share with major labels. With great understanding of the new market leverage of indies, Organic creates unique business models for artists that employ traditional grass roots methods complemented by distinctive communications strategies aimed at penetrating an oversaturated and competitive marketplace.
