Indigo Girls



Amy Ray and Emily Saliers of the Indigo Girls are an exceptional singer/songwriter duo. I wish that people would not feel the need to mention their sexual orientation every time, because their music is very good work. I am especially a fan of their older material, from Strange Fire to Swamp Ophelia. I personally own Nomads, Indians, Saints and Rites of Passage, and can recommend both as options for solid acoustic-based music.

It is really unfortunate that they come with a label. They are very good and have great songs, but god forbid that if you are a male that enjoys the Indigo Girls you must be gay. There are probably a lot more people who would enjoy them if they could get over themselves.

I have had friends that have had Indigo Girls records that would make excuses why they had them if I asked them about it thinking that I was going to make fun of them, when all I wanted to do was ask them if it was good or not.
