I took notice when #bandwagon (at https://bandwagon.fm) announced in early 2025 that they would integrated with #TheIndieBeat and allow artists to check a box when uploading music that would distribute the music to the radio station for airplay! How cool is that? Federation for the win!

Because I had made the Radio Free Fedi #Roku app and was sad when RFF shut down in Dec 2024, I contacted Kirsten and asked if it would be OK for me to make an app for #TIBr and she said, yes! I was back in business listening to music on my entertainment center from my couch in the living room.To install the app, search "Indie Beat" on the device or go here and install it on your account on the web:

The Indie Beat Radio federates with Bandwagon.fm to amplify its music artists who’ve opted-in to distribution. We also play music in the public domain. Listen. Mix. Share.

On launch day, Dec 28th, we planned three events starting at 12:00 UTC and spaced 8 hours apart. We expected maybe 30 viewers and chat to stay open for 1hr each time.Instead, we had over a hundred viewers repeatedly through the day who stayed for hours and hours.
If you missed the launch video, run straight over to watch it! Made by @RobertaFidora you may recognize it as an homage to something or other:

Kind of funny that the #TIBTV launch video made me realize @mizkirsten and I are practically neighbors...well, if you consider anyone less than an hour away a "neighbor."

@Lime Bar Not using qr codes here, unless they explicitly mention the actual link in text underneath. Sadly this format is too intransparent and too foften misused for that reason.
