🎵 Lexi Algar opens the show. Based in Long Beach, California, she's a multi-instrumentalist and self-taught singer-songwriter whose voice draws comparisons to Karen Carpenter. She quit her job to pursue music full time and has been an independent artist ever since.

🎶 Indigo Syndicate follows out of Nashville, Tennessee. This self-produced trio makes genre-fluid electronic pop with R&B and indie edges, and has already earned multiple Apple Music editorial placements and a spot on Live Nation's Ones to Watch playlist, all without a label.

🌲 focal is the project of Zach Sroka, a bedroom artist from northeast Minneapolis. We feature two tracks off his album Porches, recorded entirely on his own.

🌍 Petravita is a Stockholm-based rapper, poet, and songwriter, born in Seattle and educated in England. He brings two tracks alongside producer Talman, blending hip hop and spoken word into something distinctly his own.

🔥 As Rome Burns closes out the episode. This four-piece alt-rock band from London brings raw energy to THREE tracks, including the perfectly titled "I Think You Should Leave" to close it out.

Audio Underground Episode 45: The Memphis Episode

🎙️ Welcome back to Audio Underground, the show dedicated exclusively to unsigned and independent artists. No algorithms. No gatekeeping. Just real music from real people.

Episode 45 is the Memphis Episode, and every artist featured today calls Memphis, Tennessee home. Three artists, three completely different sounds, all on the same side of the same fight. This one is dedicated to Black Memphians and every underrepresented community in that city that keeps creating, keeps pushing, and keeps showing up.

🎵 Featured Artists:

🔥 Pippotchi opens the show with Color Blind, Soul On Fire, and Give Me Grace. Memphis hip-hop with heart, depth, and a whole lot of intention.

⚡ Max Boost and the Power-Ups bring something harder to define. Experimental funk meets roots rock in a way you genuinely have to hear to understand. We are featuring Funky Once Again, Get Ready For Us Now, and Graveyard Dirt.

🌊 Bleu Levees closes out the episode with a full async interview woven between four tracks, Memphis 94, Alchemy, Butterfly, and Switch The Knob. Born in New Orleans, raised by Memphis after Katrina, and one of the most thoughtful voices in independent hip-hop right now. His new album Not the Normal South drops this summer.

🎧 Audio Underground airs on Sonic Scout Radio. Personally curated every single week. If you are hearing these artists for the first time, that is exactly what this show is for.

🎙️ Audio Underground Episode 38 is here and this one hits different.

Four completely independent artists. Twelve songs. Zero label interference. Just real music from real people doing it entirely on their own terms.

🎸 Eyal Pik is a London-based psych-pop artist originally from Israel who built his entire career from scratch on the open mic circuit in Camden. His brand new single The One dropped March 20, 2026. Sister Bliss of Faithless says his songs should be played in stadiums. We believe her.

🎤 Nur-D is Minneapolis hip-hop artist Matt Allen. Emmy winner. Best New Minnesota Artist 2019. Hip-hop for everyone who has ever felt a little different, made by someone who has spent his entire career proving that different is exactly right.

🎵 Ovven is Nashville indie rock songwriter Owen Burton, Chicago bred and restless at heart. His debut album Gnawing At The Cord is out now and SiriusXM Outlaw Country is already calling it an instant classic.

🎶 Saltydog is a six-piece funk jam band from Duluth, Minnesota, born on the banks of Lake Superior. The Grateful Dead crossed with Smokey Robinson. A midwestern psychedelic cowboy revue. Their third album Runnin Again is out now and they are out on the road constantly.
