LooPS: Diary of an Indie Band
Welcome to Diary of an Indie Band, Inside The Minds of LooPS!! Each episode your hosts, Jon and Kevin talk about their experiences in the music industry as an Indie Band, with tips and tricks for the indie musician out there!
They feature new and established artists from all walks of life who have stories to share about their own personal journey in the music industry! Not a formal interview, this is a laid back conversation with new and old friends figuring their way through the difficult paths that the music industry holds.
There are recurring segments such as New Music, where either Jon and Kevin pick a song of their choice to highlight or their guest will bring an original or other song they'd like to share. A big part of the episodes is the Top 5 segment where the duo (and guests) give their Top 5 choices on a specific topic. These range from favourite songs to underrated bands to the best hotels and everything in between!
For further information, request a guest/song, suggest a Top 5 or anything else, please contact [email protected]
