In fact, I started to consider how unique my background was. I played up my strengths yet stripped away anything that did not make me astoundingly, interestingly different. I never lied or said anything beyond the truth; I just strove to stick out as unique and worth getting to know.

1 Indie Music What makes indie music special in the music industry is the fact that it is produced outside the studio system. Indie artists rise up out of obscurity through their own grit and determination, their own ability to publicize themselves and gain traction, their own talent and genius, and their own development of a fan base.
