Sheffield Indie
Sheffield indie is Spotify's label for indie rock and indie pop bands from the English city of Sheffield.
It names a place rather than a style. Sheffield's most widely known guitar bands, Pulp and Arctic Monkeys, broke through nationally in the mid-1990s and the mid-2000s. The city also has a long history of synth-pop and other electronic music, so guitar bands are only one part of its story. The label tells you where an artist comes from more than how they sound.
Artists it is known for: Pulp, Arctic Monkeys, Richard Hawley.
