Signatures has formed this exciting new partnership with two of Woodstock's original promoters, Michael Lang and Joel Rosenman. Woodstock was three days of peace, love and music that changed the world forever. Today, the name and logo from this historic event are among the most powerful and widely-recognized trademarks in the world.

"The world has never forgotten the 'three days of Peace and Music' attended by more than a half a million fans who were riveted by 30 acts. The impact of the legendary performances by Jimi Hendrix, The Who, Santana, Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, Sly Stone, Jefferson Airplane, Joe Cocker, Richie Havens and many more, remain as fresh in our minds as if they happened yesterday" said Michael Lang. The event was captured and memorialized in the brilliant documentary film, "Woodstock," and in two platinum live soundtrack albums.

"The three magical days of music and community at Woodstock has left a lasting and indelible mark of the minds of not only Baby Boomers but all generations in the US and around the world," said Signatures Network CEO, Dell Furano.

"In keeping with the true spirit of the Sixties and its mantra of Peace, Love and Harmony, Signatures Network will develop a Woodstock Lifestyle Brand that will embrace the Sixties spirit and energy. Working closely with only the Top Designers and Retailers, Signatures will create Fashion, Accessories, Home Decor and more that reflect the Woodstock Era ideals," Furano continues.

Signatures will carefully select innovative licensees who will incorporate the Sixties' aesthetics into each and every product in their WOODSTOCK Lifestyle lines. The new WOODSTOCK brand will appeal to all generations particularly to younger people who have already enthusiastically embraced the recent retro Sixties trends in fashion.

"Woodstock started as an intense 3-day party in the summer of '69. It has become a timeless expression of musical energy, community spirit, and the uniqueness and importance of each one of us. Today the 'Woodstock Generation' is all of us who believe in the power of peace and music," said Joel Rosenman.

Signatures Network's new WOODSTOCK lifestyle brand will give all consumers, young and old, a chance to celebrate and participate in the positive energy, passion, openness, optimism and good karma which were the ideals of the Sixties.

What better way to get "Back to the Garden" than with the WOODSTOCK brand from Signatures Network.
