Lise Romanoff, CEO and Managing Director of Vision Films shares, “Underground Inc is a fascinating look into a relatively short window of time that made an indelible mark on the music industry. This is more than a music documentary, it is a time capsule about an entire movement of independent spirit and creativity that was lost almost as soon as it was hitting its stride.”

Shaun Katz says, “This is a film about so many of the artists who changed my life yet flew under the radar for so many music lovers. It’s a story of a thriving and rich underground that was eventually co-opted by corporations and was never the same again. This film was an intensive labor of love that shares so many amazing stories of some amazingly influential artists that are long overdue for more attention. I can’t wait to share this incredible story of their journey.”

Underground Inc will be available on VOD platforms including Google Play, Vudu, FandangoNow, iTunes, Amazon Instant, Vimeo, Microsoft Xbox, YouTube. U.S. cable providers include Dish, DirecTV, Comcast, Spectrum, Charter, Cox, Verizon Fios, Frontier, Suddenlink, Mediacom, and more than 200 smaller affiliates.
