Nieve Ella takes over the Indie Forever playlist!

Nieve Ella takes over the playlist with music by Tame Impala, Radiohead and Wolf Alice!

Shropshire singer Nieve Ella takes over our playlist. Indie Forever first spotted her way back in September 2023, when we featured her as our Indie Pendence Play, where we highlight an up-and-coming act. She's since toured with The Courteeners, Girl In Red and Inhaler.

Hear her favourite indie tracks from Radiohead, Bombay Bicycle Club and Alvvays. She also tells the story of how her band got together at a Sam Fender gig just after lockdown.

Produced in Salford for BBC Radio 6 Music by We Are Grape.
