North East England Indie is a genre of music that originated in the North East of England in the late 1980s and early 1990s. It is characterized by its upbeat, guitar-driven sound, often featuring jangly guitars, melodic bass lines, and a strong emphasis on vocal harmonies. The genre is heavily influenced by the post-punk and new wave sounds of the 1980s, as well as the mod revival of the same era. It is often associated with bands such as The Futureheads, Maxïmo Park, and The Cribs.
