Evan Stein
At the start of the millennium, the dilapidated cylinder known as the music industry had been on corporate cruise control for too long. The future was about to ask “why.” And it was an exciting time. In 2003, as iTunes was revolutionizing music consumption, business entrepreneur Evan Stein could read between the lines. The writing on the wall was crystal clear. Why would consumers continue to purchase and collect music in the same laborious way. With traditional revenue models being obliterated he saw the industry having two paths forward, one would be to build a business offering corporate brands and artists fresh alternatives to connect with coveted demographics while also building a foundation with a small but mighty network of post production editors called music supervisors who, in their own way, were re-shaping the music industry.

In 2003, Stein, along with business partner Martin Weiner, formed Experience Music Group, a boutique music licensing, branding and artist management agency that specialized in matching up-and-coming indie artists with brands as well as creatives in film, television and advertising. It’s an apt moniker knowing that music electrifies our lives in a myriad of ways. Stein innately understood its impact. He too had a great ear, and a rock solid gut instinct. He knew how music could transform lives and wanted to be the guy on the other side.

Offering a ‘one-stop’ shop to provide pre-cleared content for Film, TV and new media, Experience Music Group is one of the cornerstones of the music licensing industry, having secured over 1000 licenses including placements in Mayans M.C., Damages, The Big C, Hawaii Five-0, Cobra Kai and Shameless, video games like the Steep series, movies such as I Love You, Man, American Reunion, Playing For Keeps, The Late Bloomer, and commercials for Budweiser, Pioneer, American Eagle Outfitters, ESPN, Rogers, Toyota, and Sony.
