Headed to South Carolina --

Indie Planet will be in Greenville making sure the world gets to see all the talent in South Carolina.

We'll be delivering some quality event photos and interviews for our viewers and members of the site once we get back. My thoughts are that we have way too much exclusive interviews and footage… Continue
