Independent Music In London

Graham Farnworth in The Harrison, Kings Cross. At the moment there is a quiet musical revolution going on in London - the city that has spawned so many important styles and movements, now has a bubbling experimental blues and folk scene, with many musicians independently recording and distributing their own albums through crowdfunding and social media without the need of large record labels and restrictive contracts. They play week in week out in a pleathora of small, independent, underground and makeshoft venues that have sprung up such as Jamboree and 14 Bacon Street.
