Indie Bands & Record Labels (Genre Research Project)

Arctic Monkeys
A British indie rock band formed in Sheffield in 2002. The band consists of Alex Turner, Matt Helders, Jamie Cook, Nick O'Malley, Andy Nicholson, Glyn Jones.
Record Labels: Domino Recording Company, EMI, Warner Bros. Records (Major labels)
Their most recent album was released in 2013 and is called 'AM'.
I feel that Arctic Monkeys began with a lot of underground fans but over the past ten or so years, their fan base has expanded greatly, a lot of different people being able to enjoy the music they create. Also, over the years, their music style has changed to appeal to a larger audience.

Coldplay
A British alternative rock band formed in London in 1996. The band consists of Chris Martin, Guy Berryman, Jonny Buckland, Will Champion.
Record Labels: Parlophone, EMI, Warner Music Group, Universal Music Group, Atlantic Records, Capitol Records, Fierce Panda Records (Major labels)
Coldplay's most recent album, 'A Head Full of Dreams', was released in 2015.
Coldplay's music has been produced to appeal to a large audience.

Bastille
An English indie rock band formed in London in 2010. The band consists of Dan Smith, Kyle Simmons, Will Farquarson, Chris Wood and Charlie Barnes.
