Rather than keeping within the confines of any sort of strict definition of indie pop, we are rounding out bills with jangle pop, post punk, and other genres where there has historically been lots of overlap. Additionally, in curating Providence Popfest, we sought out/prioritized bands that reflected the (various, multifaceted) perspectives of queer and trans folks and women in indiepop. It is extremely important to us to create an atmosphere where we, and folks like us, can feel at ease, at home, and in community.
