Bee There.Net was recently launched by Carl Eklof, a local musician, concert lover, and software developer who originally envisioned the need for a site that addressed all of his own musical and nightlife needs.

Carl wanted to easily learn more about his favorite artists’ backgrounds and when and where they were playing in New York. He wanted to instantly hear their new releases and easily acquire tickets to their shows. He wanted instant directions to each concert and an easy way to collect their new CDs in the meantime. Mostly, Carl dreamed of honoring fellow musicians of all genres who sweated it out on the road to provide culture and inspiration, and all the supporters of the arts that provided a time and space for artists and fans to come together. The result is a dream realized.

Carl Eklof grew up in the D.C. music scene, and has been a musician for as long as he can remember. After graduating with a Computer Science degree from Virginia Tech, he moved to Boston where he helped build the leading search and navigation vendor Endeca, while also gigging with bands including Victory at Sea. Carl hopes to bring all sides of his work and arts experience and connections to www.BeeThere.net .
