The Great Eight - August 31st

This edition of the Great Eight features songs of the indie dance persuasion. Since it's been a bit since I've been able to post on here, I figured we all could use a release of sorts so we can hop around and dance to the beat . . . indie style! you may or may have not heard of these acts before, but that's the point of the Indieface: to promote and feature music you should be aware of and listening to. Again and as always, I welcome comments and feedback of all kinds, so let me know what you think and share the indie dance love! - Piece
