Indie Artist


This hasn’t been done in a long ass time, but it’s here! :D I’m linking with three new blogs I think you need to check out .

I ran into this young artist on twitter and found her blog to be a treat. She does some amazing Q& A with fellow artist, picking their brains, getting to know them one and one. It really puts a smile on my face to see my youth out there working hard to stand behind the name INDIE. Sending this girl some one love and all the best wishes as she continues down the road.

I really hope Zoe continues her blog for years to come, because what starts off small eventually expands to the world.

Today I wanted to give a round of applause to one kick ass teen, her name is Franki, she did this amazing short Documentary of Longboarding, I’m just fucking proud, and you know I like something when I start cursing lol. Anyway, here it is, share it with your friends, I know in my heart this kid will be going places in the near future without a doubt. Congrats Franki.

Today I wanted to give a shout out to my favorite Indie Bands out there today. Because just like all indie artist, these bands are trying to be a voice of a new generation

 First up is my twisted sisters from the North, MAD JUNE , the first time I heard this band, I was just blown away, they are the answer to what Alternative Rock has been missing these past years. They got a bit of   the Bloc Party/ Yeah Yeah Yeah’s  hope you become a fan as I have :D

This next song I saw them perform on Strictly Global and what made me a huge fan of theirs :)

 

 

 

This next band is called Smile Smile, they have a nice soft tone, with lyrics that captivate  from the word go. A lot like other bands Clap Your Hands And Say Yeah.

This last band are called  THE NEW ROOT, I featured them in the past . I think they’re out of this world, they really remind me of a bit of the Cranberries, with lead singer  Trish Boothy flashing greatness of Patti Smith toughness,  :D I wanted to feature them again, because they’ve release their first debut album Talk Is Ending, which you can purchase only for $6.99 they also have four free samples to download on their site :)

I can honestly say I did not who the The New Root where and what kind of music they played. But once I saw them on twitter I had to take a look and see  what kind of sound this Indie band was pumping out.

Their song American Tale from the album ” Talk Is Ending ”  is just hypnotic, it’s breath of fresh air, the song American Tale speaks to every sense of our busy lives, tragic crashes and new beginnings. Trish Boothby has a mix of Patti Smith in her and we can only wonder how this young artist allows herself to grow down the road. The entire band itself has a bit of the Cranberries in them but with a modern-day spin to them.

I’ve spoken about the change we need in music and how it needs a new voice, well The New Root seem like that voice that can take music where it’s been waiting to go. If they continue to write what they want and not sell what the market is looking for, they should have a career that goes on for ages. Because I truly think we are at the early stages of what this band can do, we can only accept great things as they reach out of their comfort zone and explore new territory.

Check this band out who hail from Bristol, UK. If they ever make a trip to Los Angeles and hit the house of blues you can bet I’ll be there waiting to see them live and talk to them if they haven’t gone all superstar ;) just kidding. Check them out, download their songs and buy their album.
