Music sharing app Rexly has been acquired by Live Nation Labs. Details of the deal were not disclosed. The Rexly team will open a San Francisco office for Live Nation Labs to focus primarily on mobile, according to Rexly's Joel Resnicow. "We’re [recruiting a team](http://www.livenationlabs.com/jobs?ref=hypebot.com) of like-minded builders immediately in San Francisco, according to Resnicow. "We’re seeking iOS developers, front-end developers and mobile designers to start ASAP."

The [Rexly iOS app,](http://www.rexly.com/?ref=hypebot.com) which will continue to be developed after the acquisition, connects with the user's music on iTunes and enables real time sharing with selected friends on Facebook and Twitter. A portion of today's acquisition is about talent. "With team Rexly we continue to recruit the people who inspire us," [wrote](http://www.livenationlabs.com/post/27351355317/north-of-where-we-are-today-live-nation-labs-in-san?ref=hypebot.com) Live Nation Labs honcho Eric Garland," and using them to establish a beachhead in tech-heavy San Francisco.

But the deal – and much of the work being done at Live Nation Labs – is also about data. With Rexly, they've also acquired a music listening and sharing app that can feed data back to Live Nation, who are almost certainly selling tickets to a show that the user would love to buy tickets to.
