This week’s unifying genre involves the somewhat nebulous label of “indie.” Although I originally thought that indie music could only involve somber mellow tones when I first encountered it, I have since been pleasantly surprised to find music that is both indie and upbeat – listen to some below!

Foster the People – Pumped Up Kicks
The Ting Tings – That’s Not My Name
Neon Trees – Animal

Check out some more great music in the Musical Interlude series.
