"Great singers are hard to come by," says label owner Jordan McGraw. "Great artists, even harder. The Golden Hippie is a talent that stands above either of those ideas. She is a movement!  One that Hundred Handed had to be part of after the first note we heard from her. I have every confidence that she will prove to be one of the most iconic figures in music and beyond."

Label president David Bason added "We'll be hearing a lot about The Golden Hippie in months to come.  We're setting up the record now and the initial reactions have been overwhelmingly encouraging."

The online chatter about The Golden Hippie started with the release of her song "Smoke Signals" which started a fire with a flurry of online buzz. Her debut album is slated for release in 2015, and she's just released her next track "Human Animal" which you can check out here:

"I'm very excited for everyone to hear my first album," The Golden Hippie said. "After being spun on the industry wheel, I had to shut opinions out and create a sound that was lyrically and musically honest. The Golden Hippie Movement is about creating something that you are proud of, sharing it, and allowing it to live free. The movement is about the collective, not just myself; we are all golden. "
