Indie bands are quickly overtaking more mainstream artists as leaders within the music industry. Bands are considered independent when they release music without the backing of one of the major record labels. This smaller approach allows musicians the freedom to release music that is more experimental for a more targeted niche audience.

Fans of indie bands love that their favorite artists are still accessible, preferring small concert venues to large arenas. Indie music is rarely featured on the radio, and listeners often discover new bands through word of mouth or demos available on their favorite label’s website. For any music lover who is interested in finding something a little different, indie bands offer a great antidote to tired, Top 40 music.
