Watershed (South African band)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Watershed is a South African band featuring lead singer Craig W. Hinds.

Most famous for their signature tune 'Indigo Girl', Watershed became a natural success when a German radio DJ heard the single whilst vacationing in South Africa, and played it on the air in Germany. Watershed went on to become a German and international success.
