The Sound of Channel Islands Indie

“The Sound of Channel Islands Indie” brings together a cross-section of underground and independent music emerging from Guernsey, Jersey, and the surrounding Channel Islands. The playlist spans genre lines with a mix of laid-back acoustic grooves from acts like Buffalo Huddleston Band and Kiya Ashton, gritty blues-rock riffs courtesy of Robert J Hunter, and heavier alt-rock cuts from the likes of Burning At Both Ends and Seigneur Hedge Veg. There's room, too, for experimental sounds and electronic blends, particularly tracks from Mura Masa, Flexagon, and Blakalaska.

With a focus on locally grown talent, this playlist captures a raw and eclectic scene. From the quirky indie theatrics of The Recks’ “The Milk’s Gone Bad” to the doom-laced tones of Byzanthian Neckbeard, every track offers a different shade of island identity. Whether it's singer-songwriters, genre-bending producers, or full-band chaos, this is a window into what indie sounds like around the cliffs and coastlines of the Channel Islands.
