It’s not Pop, Rap or Country music, its Independent music, aka Indie music. Bands & singer you think you know, might not be the genre you would have guessed, but could be in the Indie Music genres. Independently started to reach their goals in music & inspiration.

Into the new year of 2015 here comes more music for fun, inspiration, and thinking outside of the box. Indie Music is produced independently from major record labels like Katy Perry or Eminem. Bands/singers that produce indie music have a method of “Do-it-Yourself” approach to recording and publishing. They may have started slow, but are still gaining more fans everyday. Most of the Indie genre bands are inspired by each other.
