Dear Indugu began as the solo project of singer/songwriter Jesse Strickman and has evolved into a full band with a surprisingly dynamic sound that will captivate and inspire listeners. Jesse's intensely personal lyrics hold themes such as love, loss, nostalgia, depression, personal identity, honesty, innocence, and a search for inner truth. With their versatile sound, passionate presence, and commitment to originality and musicianship, the bay area based band sends a powerful message.
Sweeeeet! We need more shows with good bands! Seriously tho matt and I were saying that that night was one of the best nights at the Y. Keep up with the good tunes!
Hey guys! Super late on commenting you guys, but the show this past saturday in greenfield was awesome! I loved your song with the harmonica.
