Under the Couch resides inside of the Georgia Tech Student Center, and serves as a performance, recording, and lounge space on the Georgia Tech campus. The space is run by the Musician's Network (student organization) at Georgia Tech. The Georgia Tech Musician's Network often teams up with the Emory Musician's Network to put on various performances and events, including a livestream they put together during the summer of 2020 during the height of the Black Lives Matter Movement in Atlanta. The two organizations put together an almost seven hour livestream of performances in order to raise money for various organizations in the Atlanta area including the Atlanta Solidarity Fund, Black Lives Matter Atlanta, Fair Fight, Southern Center for Human Rights, and Urban League of Greater Atlanta.

password:password is an indie rock band that formed thanks to Under the Couch and the Musician's Network. The band features Claire Lacombe, Heath Murphy, Chris Mickas, Merritt Treater, and Jed Paz, all graduates of the Georgia Institute of Technology, and many former executive members of the Georgia Tech Musician's Network. They are featured in the \"Musicians Support Black Lives Matter Livestream\" put on by Under the Couch, and perform around 5:55:00 in the livestream. As seen through their continued work with Under the Couch and activism on social media, password:password has proven to use their platform to speak out on what they believe in, especially in the light of social justice issues and police brutality that make their way into our headlines every day. Password:password is a wonderful example of not only our potential great indie groups, but also some of the activists fighting for justice in Atlanta.

The Shaky Knees Music Festival is an annual music festival In Atlanta, founded in 2013 by Tim Sweetwood, an Atlanta native. The goal of the festival is to bring more indie music to Atlanta, since up until the creation of Shaky Knees Atlanta did not host an exclusively indie music festival. The festival has been held in many location throughout Atlanta including Historic Fourth Ward Park (2013), Atlantic Station (2014), Centennial Olympic Park (2016-2017), and Central Park off of North Avenue (2015, 2018-present). When it is not festival season, Central Park is a great place for a picnic or a walk, and it is within walking distancing from two Midtown dining staples, Poor Calvin's, Mary Mac's Tea Room, as well as Ponce City Market.

One indie group who hold Shaky Knees near and dear to their hearts is Lunar Vacation. The group is made up of Grace Repasky, Maggie Geeslin, John Michael Young, Connor Dowd, and Matteo DeLurgio, who all met in high school in Atlanta. The group continued to play together through college, with half the group attending Georgia State University and half attending Georgia Tech. Since then the band has produced 5 singles and EPs, their most recent single being \"Unlucky\" released in 2020. The group had always enjoyed the Shaky Knees Music Festival, and had the opportunity to perform at Shaky Knees 2019 with Yellow Days, and were supposed to perform with Durand Jones & The Indications at Shaky Knees 2020, which was cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The group has stated in an interview that their goal is to headline Shaky Knees one day. Lunar Vacation has been exceptionally vocal on social media and in the Atlanta area surrounding the 2020 Presidential and Georgia Senate Elections, as well as the ongoing Black Lives Matter movement and various other social justice issues.

The Little Five Points Pub, or also known as the Little Five Points Community Pub, was another main performance spot for the Indigo Girls and Caroline Aiken. The pub served as a meeting place for all events, from open mic nights, poetry readings, art shows, community meetings, and board-game nights. In 1977 the Atlanta Intown Development Corporation, a group of investors, purchased and renovated the first of the homes in Little Five Points. The neighborhood had fallen by the wayside and the investors, who were all active members in the Civil Rights Movement decided that the area had much more potential than people were giving it credit for. Little Five Points has long been voted one of the best and most popular areas for LBGT families to live in. The Little Five Points Community Pub was their main gig while they were at Emory University. It was at the Little Five Points Pub that Eddie Owens invited the duo to play at the Trackside Tavern. The community was a nurturing one, and one that allowed the Indigo Girls in particular to flourish. I think that communities like the one they found at the Little Five Points Pub truly shaped the Indigo Girls into the musicians, activists, and people that they are today.

The video shows an outdoor performance in Little Five Points with the Indigo Girls.

The Trackside Tavern is a location where many of the narratives of this storyline cross. Indie folk singer and guitarist, as well as Atlanta native, Caroline Aiken heard The Inigo Girls perform for the first time at an open-mic night at the Trackside Tavern, and invited them to open for her performance at the Little Five Points Pub. The Trackside Tavern became a hub for local artists to perform, collaborate, and just hang out. Bartender at the Trackside Tavern, Eddie Owen, saw the talent of the Indigo Girls, Caroline Aiken, and Kristian Bush, a member of Billy Pilgrim and Sugarland. Eddie Owen saw the need for more performance space for artists playing more acoustic music, so he set out, and eventually opened up Eddie' Attic (stop number 3).

The first video in the media carousel is from 1991 and shows folk rock and country singer Kristen Hall, who was a founding member of Sugarland, and is also an Atlanta native. At the 32 minute mark she is joined by Emily Saliers, one half of the Indigo Girls. The second video is from a performance at Red Clay Music Foundry in 2015 where Caroline Aiken, Michelle Malone, and DeDe Vogt all reminiscing on their days back at the Trackside Tavern. The trio jokes, commenting on how you had to be a lesbian to get a job at the Trackside Tavern, which references to the very large LGBT+ community in the Decatur area during the 1980s.

Amplify Decatur Music Festival is a product of the organization Amplify My Community which was founded in 2010 and is based in Decatur. The goal of the organization is to use music to raise money to the fight poverty at a local level. There are Amplify My Community concerts throughout Georgia, North Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia. The Indigo Girls were set to headline the 2020 Amplify Decatur Music Festival, which was then canceled due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Despite the festival being cancelled the organization still received $36,500 in gifts from concertgoers. This stop is important for two reasons. The first being that this takes you into the heart of Downtown Decatur, where the Indigo Girls, along with many of our other indie folks artists would have spent lots of time. Decatur is quirky, fun, and artsy, but it is also an area that has many needs. Amplify Decatur partners with Decatur Cooperative Ministry who then partner with 35 congregations, universities, schools, and various other areas of the community to provide transitional housing, re-housing, and homelessness prevention. Secondly, I think that this partnership between Amplify Decatur and the Indigo Girls is a huge, physical demonstration on how the Indigo Girls use their platform to affect the world in a bigger way than just through their music. The Indigo Girls have been invested in the city of Atlanta and in Decatur since they were in high school, from volunteering at food banks and soup kitchens to starting Honor the Earth, and organization that creates awareness and support for Native environmental issues.

The Festival is normally in the Decatur Square green and spills into the MARTA plaza. When it is not festival time there are lots of locally owned business to explore in Downtown Decatur!

The first being that this takes you into the heart of Downtown Decatur, where the Indigo Girls, along with many of our other indie folks artists would have spent lots of time. Decatur is quirky, fun, and artsy, but it is also an area that has many needs. Amplify Decatur partners with Decatur Cooperative Ministry who then partner with 35 congregations, universities, schools, and various other areas of the community to provide transitional housing, re-housing, and homelessness prevention. Secondly, I think that this partnership between Amplify Decatur and the Indigo Girls is a huge, physical demonstration on how the Indigo Girls use their platform to affect the world in a bigger way than just through their music. The Indigo Girls have been invested in the city of Atlanta and in Decatur since they were in high school, from volunteering at food banks and soup kitchens to starting Honor the Earth, and organization that creates awareness and support for Native environmental issues. The Festival is normally in the Decatur Square green and spills into the MARTA plaza. When it is not festival time there are lots of locally owned business to explore in Downtown Decatur!https://www. amplifydecatur. org/http://www. honorearth. org/about",[131,409],{"_75":423,"_127":424,"_129":425},[],"Amplify Decatur","\nhttps://amplifymycommunity.org/2020/10/05/amplify-my-community-announces-36500-in-gifts-to-charitable-organizations-in-2020/","https://api.opentour.site/atlanta-music-maps/v4/public/media/w8oryqzkdx0vuoulv2nnipc1i5vq?variant=desktop",{"_99":427,"_96":23,"_127":424,"_139":173,"_141":-5,"_143":-5,"_145":428,"_147":429,"_36":430,"_150":-5,"_151":152,"_153":428,"_154":177,"_156":178,"_75":423,"_159":-5},334,"16074004484.jpeg",{"_160":431,"_162":432,"_164":433,"_166":425,"_168":434},352,"https://api.opentour.site/atlanta-music-maps/v4/public/media/w8oryqzkdx0vuoulv2nnipc1i5vq","https://api.opentour.site/atlanta-music-maps/v4/public/media/w8oryqzkdx0vuoulv2nnipc1i5vq?variant=mobile","https://api.opentour.site/atlanta-music-maps/v4/public/media/w8oryqzkdx0vuoulv2nnipc1i5vq?variant=tablet","https://api.opentour.site/atlanta-music-maps/v4/public/media/w8oryqzkdx0vuoulv2nnipc1i5vq?variant=lqip",13,"eddie-s-attic","Eddie's Attic ",{"_36":408,"_66":409,"_75":410},{"_36":525,"_66":526,"_75":527},"515 N McDonough St","

Eddie's Attic is an intimate music venue as well as full service bar and restaurant in Decatur that has been opened since 1991. Eddie's Attic is a location that ties together and connects many of the indie folk groups from Atlanta, because of its popularity. The venue is unique in that they showcase local talent from the Atlanta area through weekly open mic nights, while also holding concerts for larger named groups who have ties to Atlanta or got their career started in Atlanta. Eddie's also holds a semi annual Open Mic Shootout where artists from all over the country perform and compete. The Indigo Girls have performed many times at Eddie's Attic, as well as have recorded two of their songs live at Eddie's Attic (Spotify links below). Caroline Aiken also frequently performed at Eddie's Attic prior to moving to Athens, Georgia. Eddie's Attic remains a staple for Atlanta and Decatur residents, as well as musics from all over the state and country.

The first video in the media carousel is a short interview with the original owner of Eddie's Attic and the Indigo Girls. The next two videos are of Caroline Aiken performing at Eddie's Attic in 2007 and 2009 respectively. In Aiken's first video she performs \"Ground Zero\" and she opens the song by discussing her experience living in South American and being a part of a Christian cult, and relating that to the religious extremist groups involved in the September 11, 2001 attacks on the United States. Her song \"Ground Zero\" is her reflection on her experiences in South America and observing how connected politics and religion can become. Her second dong is \"My There for Me Guitar.\" The final video is the Indigo Girls performing their most popular song \"Closer to Fine\" accompanied by an enthusiastic audience harmonizing and singing along in Eddie's Attic.

Indigo girls played an opening act in 1986 for Donovan. Caroline Aiken also frequently played at the Moonshadow Saloon. Unfortunately the Moonshadow Saloon was another establishment that had to close its doors. The property is now owned by Emory University and serves as a hub for their university bus fleet. The Moonshadow Saloon remains in the tour because it serves an important place in the history of these artists. During the 1980's the Atlanta live music scene was seeing a surge in punk rock, alternative rock, and electronic music, which made it difficult to find venues that would fit the more acoustic sound of the indie folk music that Caroline Aiken and the Indigo Girls were playing. The Indigo Girls also found when they began performing in coffeehouses and bars, sometimes the coffeehouses were almost aggressively heterosexual, making for a slightly uncomfortable setting for the two lesbian artists. The Moonshadow Saloon stands for the different sort of space needed for indie folk music, but also for the welcoming and inclusive environment for members of the LGBT+ community during the 1980's and 1990's.

Amy Ray and Emily Saliers make up the folk-rock duo, the Indigo Girls. The two met in elementary school in Decatur, and began creating music together in high school. They continued their music making careers through college at Emory University, where they both graduated from with degrees in English. Throughout their career, the Indigo Girls have used their platform to speak about LGBTQIA+ rights, women's right, immigration reform, and environmental issues.

The Dugout was a bar located in Emory Village that the Indigo Girls would perform at weekly while the duo was studying at Emory University. Unfortunately, The Dugout is no longer in business, but the location remains important to the duo's partnership in music and served as a crucial location for their music careers and for their time at Emory University. Like many of the other staples in Emory Village that the Indigo Girls and fellow Emory students during the 1980s would have frequented, the small establishments have been forced to close their doors due to high rent in the Emory Village area and have been replaced by large, corporate chains. In The Dugout's spot sits a Chipotle Mexican Grill.

Prior to deciding on the name the Indigo Girls, the duo performed as the B-Band, as well as Saliers & Ray. They changed their name in 1985 to the Indigo Girls before an opening act performance at Moonshadow Saloon. \"Blue Food\" was the duo's first recording, and it was recorded in 1985 at a live performance at The Dugout. \"Blue Food\" was recorded on a cassette tapes and the case cover is handwritten. Later that year the duo recorded their first studio single, which was sold on vinyl at the Emory University bookstore.

","tour_count","Introduction","introduction","

When thinking about music from Atlanta most people, myself included turn right to hip-hop as some of the most well known music to come out of the city of Atlanta. One thing that I admire about many Atlanta artists from all genres of music is how many use their platform and presence in the music world for things greater than themselves or their music. This semester I have learned about artists from OutKast, Goodie Mob, and Childish Gambino and the different ways that each of these artists bring to light issues including police brutality, gun violence, drug usage, and environmental concerns. I wanted to continue to explore other artists from Atlanta that value using their platform for something greater than just their immediate success. In addition I wanted to look at female or predominantly female indie folk or indie rock groups, because it is some of my favorite music to listen to, and I wanted to explore local artists, in hopes of broadening my horizons.

Indie rock music originated in the 1970s in the United States and the United Kingdom, coming out of the alternative rock and punk rock genres. Indie folk music emerged after this in the late 1980s and 1990s when indie rock began to be influenced by folk music in the US and UK, and often incorporated softer instruments, like acoustic guitar, rather than louder, electric instruments. This was part of the folk music influence. Originally the term \"indie\" in the genres specifies that the artists recorded with an independent record label rather than a large commercial record company. While this still holds true for many artists, the term \"indie\" has become more associated with the sound and type of music rather than signifying the artist working with an independent record company. Now many people will just reference \"indie\" music, but the music is usually categorized as indie pop, indie rock, or indie folk.

Folk music is simply the music of the people. Since folk music from the 1960s, folk and indie artists have been closely tied to progressive and political movement. For example, many gospel songs and spirituals were also sung as folk songs and used by protesters the Civil Rights Movement. From there folk music has been closely tied to almost every political movement in the United States, including anti-war protests, the second wave of feminism, environmental movements, LGBTQ rights, and immigration. Some songs even became an anthem of sorts for the movement or protest.

Through this tour we will be exploring important locations in the live's and career's of indie folk pioneers, the Indigo Sisters, and Caroline Aiken, and then continue the tour looking at indie folk groups that are currently gaining momentum in the music scene of Atlanta. More importantly, along with the biographical story of these musicians, we will also be looking at the ways the artists have used their platforms to speak on organizations and issues that they believe are prevalent and important in the world.

As Andre 3000 from OutKast so perfectly stated \"The South got something to say\" and the indie folk and indie rock artists are not afraid to spell it out for us.
