Second Life is celebrating 23 years with a month of live music, performances, shopping, community exhibits, and the incredible creativity that makes the Second Life community so special.
As part of the celebration, IndieSpectrum Radio will be sharing original music from some of Second Life’s top performers while residents explore the SL23B regions — and we’re excited to help spotlight the live music community throughout the event.
We’ve also launched a new SL23B Spotlight Feature on the IndieSpectrum Radio homepage that automatically highlights the next three musicians scheduled to perform from the official SL23B calendar:
