The Sweet Blood of Jesus
The unforgettable Spike Lee, director of Da Sweet Blood of Jesus, introducing all the artist a part of the listening party

The event took place in NYC with Spike Lee explaining how the movie Da Sweet Blood of Jesus was a independent project funded through Kickstarter. Spike Lee wanted to bring in that same independent spirit to the movie soundtrack. So Spike Lee asked through social for unsigned indendent artist to submit their music for Da Sweet Blood of Jesus soundtrack. 

This listening party gave the media, critics, and fans a look at new independent artists.
