In this episode of The Lorenzo's Music Podcast, I meet Kirsten Lambertsen, the creator of Indie Beat FM, an innovative online radio station for independent musicians. Kirsten shares the inspiration behind Indie Beat, which emerged in response to the need for a platform that prioritizes artist discovery without the constraints of traditional streaming services.

We delve into how Indie Beat integrates with Bandwagon.fm, allowing artists to share their music across genres and channels. Kirsten explains the curation process, emphasizing the importance of artist-tagged genres and the collaborative spirit that defines the platform. 

We discuss the challenges of running an independent music station, including the technical aspects of streaming and the community-driven approach that makes Indie Beat unique. Kirsten also shares her vision for the future of the platform, including the potential for artist-run stations and personalized playlists that foster deeper connections between listeners and musicians.
