Re: Indie Girl Voice
Does Adrianne Lenker do this (indie girl voice, not the muted strum)?

Re: Indie Girl Voice
I just looked her up and this is the first video I clicked on, and I have to say, unfortunately, yes she does the Indie Girl Voice, but somehow it doesn't seem as egregious as most others. Probably because it seems more genuine and suits the music and mood of the song very well.Higgs wrote:Does Adrianne Lenker do this (indie girl voice, not the muted strum)?

Yeah, but indie girl voice is indie girl voice. It's a hard line.

Sat down at the bar next to a girl who spoke with the indie girl voice. I immediately moved seats.
