The Indies presents Just Like Fruit, a tasty Brighton England based act on the QM Records imprint. Just below is the music video to their debut song titled Funfair, a song that reminds us of early Joe Jackson meets The Plimsouls. Members consist or Kieran Matthews on rhythm guitar, Dion Mason-Poole on vocals, Ryan Melbourne-Hurley on bass guitar, Erwin Lotasz on drums and Taran Pring on lead guitar.
The photo at the top of this post and the music video was directed by Sheridan Griffiths, with special effects by Leah Sophie. The song was mixed and mastered by Gary Poole. Enjoy!
The Indies is proud to present, Elise Trouw, a inspired emerging 18 year old drummer who has a lovely voice, with additional skills as an arranger, one girl band as a looper, multi-instrumentalist and technical/gear geek who proudly to offers up lists of what electronics and gear she used to make her recordings.
Nonchalant or laid back best describes her style. Her music is never rushed and maintains a certain stillness to it, such as in her most recent viral music video of a mashup of a FooFighters song titled Everlong meets Bobby Caldwell's song titled What You Won't Do, (listen/view here at TheQuietStorm.Com). That smooth groove mashup recording she made may just be what landed her debut network television appearance and two song performance on ABC-TV's Jimmy Kimmel Live on January 30th, 2018.
Outside of the viral cover song mashup referenced above, she is a very good original songwriter who musters up talented people to help her make well done audio recordings, music videos and filmed live performances.
The two videos featured below are different versions of the same song titled Awake. Awake is track #10 on her independent debut album titled Unraveling.
It is a tossup between which version is The-Indies favorite, so a flip of a quarter picked the minimalist piano/voice version first and the studio version of Awake and it's conceptual music video next. Enjoy!

Thank you to a fave featured band on TheIndies.Com, Population:7, for introducing #TheIndies to a tasty indie hip-hop, soul & funk band from their side of the pond in the United Kingdom known as Sounds Of Harlowe.
The-Indies is proud to present the first song from Sounds of Harlowe's debut EP album titled Change Of Disposition, due out in January 2018.
The music was written and recorded by Sounds Of Harlowe with the band giving special thanks to Nino D'Angelo, Stefan Goowdwin and Liam Cooper for extra sounds. The director of photography on the music video was Jack Edwards. The audio was mixed, produced and mastered by Jamie Aubrey and Nathan Evans.
The-Indies is proud to once again feature the gifted act known as SHEL, which is an acronym for Sarah, Hannah, Eva and Liza. They are four sisters who as kids had a father who was a working musician. They each picked up their own skills along the way of being around their father and together as a sister group, they are stellar organic and rare.
This song featued in the music video below was initially released in 2015, but if you turn it up and capture all the subtle nuance while watching the video, you may too determine that this song and music is destined for a forever classic status. The song is titled You Could Be My Baby from the groups album titled Just Crazy Enough.
