Indie Music Channel was created by Emmy Award winning TV host, actor & model, Christopher Ewing. "I created the Indie Music Channel and 'The Radio Cafe' radio show because I have always felt that there needed to be more support for local, indie artists and their music. There are a lot of really talented singers and bands out here whose music isn't getting enough radio play, if at all, mostly because they aren't signed to a big record deal with a major label. Whether these singers or bands have a record deal or not, they still have awesome music that deserves to be heard on the radio and on television and now, through the Indie Music Channel, there is an outlet for them to get their music played."
