But, for Lauralee Sheehan, former Lovely Killbots rockstar / indie record label owner turned founder and CCO of her own digital agency, the latter could never have happened without the former. Lauralee is living proof that music, tech, entrepreneurship, and being an artist are all completely intertwined.\\xa0
