Indie Combo No. 1 Playlist
This week we revisit an episode originally produced in 2013, setup as though we’re in a diner that serves only combo-styled meals of indie music. Since this episode first aired, many of these great indie bands have gone on to become much bigger names in the music industry, garnered several fans, and produced many more great songs. I hope you will explore more music from the artists presented here that you really enjoy.
Cheers!

Oh. Nicole Atkins’ VOICE!!! Thanks for “The Tower” this week. And “No Widows,” too. Great week, in our humble opinion!!
Thanks Kristy. We love Nicole’s voice too. She’s pretty remarkable. Thanks for the suggestion on No Widows. That’s a great choice as well.
