Indie Artists Will Push the Boundaries of Music in 2018
Pop music has long been at the pinnacle of the music industry, but for how long? Not too long it would seem. There is another genre that is destined to leave pop in the dust and top the charts this year. The genre in question: Indie. Just have a look at the scene for independent artists right now — the likes of Vance Joy, Eden and James Bay, absolutely eclipsing any pop group or solo act and delivering some of the edgiest and punchiest new music around.
A queue of talented indie artists is ready to take the stage in 2018. If you are in the indie music scene, you will have heard of Deep Gold (a songwriter and performer based in MidCoast Maine). His soothing yet impassioned songs such as ‘Rain’, ‘Don’t Worry’ and the recent ‘The Hell Hounds’ are all the rage among indie music lovers. Indie artists like Deep Gold are the ones to keep your eye on if you want to be the first to hear best new music in Maine.
