Indie Events in Leicester

Indie covers a wide spectrum — from jangly guitar pop to post-punk revival to whatever the NME is championing this month. The common thread is an independent spirit and a focus on songwriting and live performance. Indie nights at clubs lean heavily on singalongs and nostalgia alongside newer tracks.
