What even defines indie?
It used to mean something way back when. Groups that were on independent labels with a DIY approach and a different take on the world.
But in a world where Lana Del Rey and Billie Eilish with their billions of listens are indie - even Taylor Swift - does indie mean anything at all any more? How did we get to where we are now?
Join me, Ian Forth for a short history of independent and indie music.
Be expertly briefed each week on a wide variety of intriguing musical topics.
