Amazing story this one!

This is an amazing story of how to get YOUR BAND SIGNED. I can't quite believe it.

We posted this image on Facebook after an amazing band came in to record with us and we didn't even catch their name. After sharing the image below it was shared almost 200 times and we tracked them down.

We've signed them to our label and they will have a new album out this year! Look out for it and go follow them at Maisetto because they're about to blow everyone away!

SO IF YOU SHARED THIS BEFORE THEN THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
