The Sound of Mississippi Indie

Mississippi’s indie scene is a mix of gritty garage rock, dreamy pop, and Southern-tinged storytelling, and this playlist brings it all together. The Weeks and Bass Drum of Death inject raw energy, while artists like Kate Teague and Schaefer Llana add a softer, introspective edge. Water Liars and Andrew Bryant bring folk-leaning melodies, and the DIY spirit shines through in bands like Dream Cult and The Holy Ghost Electric Show. From bluesy influences in R.L. Boyce and Kent Burnside to the offbeat charm of Dent May, this collection highlights the variety within the state's indie sound. Whether swaggering or sentimental, each track gives a fresh take on Mississippi’s rich musical traditions.
