INDYGROUND CREW

About Us

IndyGround Entertainment was started in December 2004; releasing a mixtape by hip hop group Steddy English (Steddy P. & Eddy English).
Founded by Steddy P and Andy Price, the two strived to create an aesthetic separate from popular culture, focused
regionally on the Middle of Map, USA. At first, the label placed empahasis on the Interstate 70 stretch from Lawrence to St. Louis
and everything in-between; but now thanks to a grassroots approach and five years of hard work, we have began to expand nationally.
Currently, the IndyGround Family has 20 releases, and houses artists in seven different cities. Help further the story.

IndyGround Entertainment LLC.
4741 Central Suite 483
