The Independent + The Wave Exchange January 8, 2011

First planted in the cranium of guitarist and singer/songwriter Dan Goldberger in 1989, The Independent grew into a full-grown band at the end of 2008. Taking a cup of pop, a spoonful of jazz, a drop of folk, and baking it in an oven of ROCK, The Independent concocts songs so infectious you might get a rash, in a style best-termed "pop-fusion". A sip of sonic experimentation and improvisation complements the sound nicely in the live environment, but never at the expense of putting a smile on your face and the songs in your heart. Apply liberally to the ears: The Independent is delicious AND fat-free.
