Some of you might have heard the names Maroon 5, No Doubt and Green Day, just to mention a few.  Pretty successful bunch, wouldn’t you say?  What do they have in common, besides being successful?  They’re all indie groups! 

 What are “Indie groups”???  

 

     They are bands / artists who are, simply, looking to make it in music.  As we all know, it is extremely difficult to not only score a record contract, but to also find an audience…especially with all the competition out there.  At one time, they had to depend on managers and agents to do all of this for them.  But thanks to the internet, and pages like Myspace, these really hard-working performers are getting it done by themselves.  AND BOY DO THEY DESERVE A LOT OF CREDIT!!!  

 

         For more than two years now, I have been doing an online podcast called “State of Independence”, where I get to play music by some very talented future superstars of music.  So far, I am hearing the next Maroon 5, No Doubt and Green Day…heck, I’m even hearing the new Rolling Stones, Aerosmith and Pat Benatar!!  These people are so dedicated and hard-working, not to mention extremely talented, that I’m also featuring them on my other internet radio shows sandwiched in with all the more established artists and bands…and ya know something?  They belong there!  

 

       So, I’ll be doing weekly music blogs, covering other areas along with spotlighting the Indies.  And there will be NO GOSSIP!!!  I promise you!!  I could care less about who’s having a baby, or who’s getting a divorce, blah-blah-blah...to me, that has NOTHING to do WHATSOEVER with music, or with a person’s talent!  PERIOD!!

 

In the meantime do check out my radio shows and all other info about me and the bands I play on my websites.
