The Water Dogs shared what it personally means to them to be indie music women artists:
“Personally to me, to be an indie artist means to have the freedom to create and publish what you want. Being on a major record label definitely has perks, for example, the message you’re sending probably will spread further. But maybe if you’re on a record label, it becomes their message that you’re spreading. Being an indie artist means you can say what you want to say when you want to say it.”
