Denison WitmerWelcome back to “Intro to Indie Music,” now on Day 6!  Hope you enjoyed the links from Friday’s post (here).  If you haven’t checked them out, make sure you do that.

This week will be week two of our introduction to indie music (Christian indie in particular), with Friday wrapping things up, so check back every day for more updates.  If you’re just coming around, be sure to check out the previous posts.  I think all of the MP3s are still available for download.

Important Note

These MP3s are here for sampling purposes and to help spread the news about some sweet bands you may not otherwise know about. Support the artists by buying their MP3s and CDs and attending their shows. If you're a musician and don't want your MP3s on here, let us know and we'll take them down. In the interests of promotion and not robbery, all MP3s are taken down after a week or two, so if you wanna hear stuff, either come around often or pay for songs.

Send us an e-mail if you want stuff removed or you would like to be promoted here.
