Indie/Rock/Acoustic


Indie rock is a genre of alternative rock that came from the UK and United States in around the 1980’s. It is a very diverse genre that is popular among a younger generation which strives to be different to pop and mainstream music. It is usually supported by independent labels that allow more musical freedom. Some of the inspiration for indie rock bands comes from bands such as the Beatles and Radio head. It is a mix of many genres such as alternative rock, folk music and pop. Acoustic music is raw sound without any computer editing, usually just a voice and guitar or piano, acoustic music is usually original and written by the artists themselves, artist associated with indie/rock/acoustic tend not be interested in celebrity status or selling themselves but more about getting their music out their the way they want it.
