Top Music Festivals to Hear Indie Bands
In the past thirteen years a new trend in music festivals has emerged. The indie rock movement has it’s origins in the post grunge music scene in Seattle, Washington. Today in America on both coasts of the country there are festivals catering to indie music. Starting in the month of February, the Noise Pop Festival is held in San Francisco, California. The Snow Ball Festival is held in Avon, Colorado in the month of March. SXSW is held in Austin, Texas also in the month of March, but there are more festivals that progress during the rest of the year.
The Joshua Tree Music Festival which is held in May is close to the Joshua Tree National Park. An epitome of the indie music scene without the corporate sponsors. With acts from all over the world, this festival has something for everyone. Moving southeast to the foothills of Tennessee is the Bonaroo Music Festival. It is held at a farm outside of Manchester, Tennessee and swells to over 100,000 attendees.
In conclusion, the venues that make indie music possible have made it popular with many of the college aged Americans and beyond. We have the people who make the music and they thank us by letting them play in venues all over the nation.Take a look here to learn more: Dominica’s World Creole Music Festival 2011 Lineup
