I'm bad about plugging indie in front of a genre all the time. I'm not sure why I do it. I guess I do that to help separate the bands. For instance, I use 'folk' to explain Woody Guthrie but then I also use 'folk' to explain Tallest Man on Earth and those two are so different I feel that they can't possible be in the same genre so when I am suggesting TMoE to someone I just say 'indie folk' and usually they understand. Its probably more a bad habit than it is so much thinking its an entire genre itself lol.
