Every year incredible records get released by indie artists who don’t take their cues from the mainstream - Aesop Rock, Bloc Party, Dangerdoom, Pelican, Rufio, Wolf Parade, and so many more. PLUG is about all of us in the margins coming together to recognize our own. PLUG is about the independent community, all of us in the margins, coming together to recognize our own. The UN-Grammys.
We invite everyone to cast their vote, your opinion matters!
Every year we fans pledge our devotion by joining MySpace, making mix tapes, trading MP3s, squeezing into cramped venues, wrangling indie retail clerks, writing blogs, sporting concert T's. For all of us, these artists are vital, relevant and sometimes even revolutionary.
PLUG is about the artists who inspire and the music that disrupts the artistic and corporate mediocrity that so often dominates our culture. PLUG , for us, is the experience of trading that music with friends. We all know that when we hear these records that as revolutionary and even sublime as they sometimes are, they too often won't get the recognition we hope & fight to give them. PLUG is about bringing fans and biz alike together and giving them that recognition.
