Why is this artist indie?
Indie music these days can almost incorporate any style, and doesn't seem to necessarily need to be apart from a major label. That almost makes it impossible to figure out, but I see it more of a perspective or feeling. I think most of these artists share a true joy for creating music, and an honest approach to these creations. The results can vary because there's no limitations on your style or creed anymore.
I would consider us an indie group, at least in the description above, but I sometimes hesitate to use the word these days because I feel people are using it only as a trend. But deep down indie music is something that won't go away. People will continue to make indie music for their own reasons and not what has been forced upon them.
