Southeast Indie Fest is making its debut bringing together 16 of the most dynamic indie bands from across the region for a genre-fluid celebration of sound, soul, and indie creativity. Set against the vibrant backdrop of The Garden Club at Wild Heaven in Atlanta, this year’s fest promises a weekend packed with discovery, community, and pure musical energy.

This sweeping biblical drama, directed by King Vidor and produced by Edward Small—a Georgia-raised trailblazer of early independent cinema—is the first in a film series dedicated to honoring his remarkable contributions to the entertainment industry.

“There hasn’t been anything like it on the south side of Atlanta, and really in Georgia as a whole,” Matt McClain said. McClain is the executive director of Trilith Live, the newest addition to the Town of Trilith.
