The DIY (and small label) top 10 songs for March 2022 features kick-ass songs from
DIY artists and bands stretching from the tip of Ireland to the urban sprawl of 
Los Angeles.

These are also ALL **artists and bands to watch** in our opinion; otherwise they
would not have made this top 10 playlist because there are too many promising artists
and bands around that many of you have never heard of – and admittedly, plenty that
we didn’t know of; which is the great gift of music discovery.

Check out the other top 10s if you dig this; share and like if you can and don’t
miss our new Top 50 playlists – dope, dope music only here at Indie Rock Cafe – 
celebrating 15 years of music blogging.

It may just be us, but Junk Drawer reminds us of a British Kurt Vile while Car Boot
Sale is sounding heavily Spoon-influenced (not a bad thing). The crooning of Niall
Mutter is captivating and soothing while Operation Man also shows off his vocal 
skills and pop sensibilities.

True that not all of these artists/bands are DIY in the traditional sense, but we
consider small labels as ‘DIY’ much of the time to make things easier.

This top 10 playlist is in no particular order – you pick your favs. It’s too good
of a playlist to sort out that way. All that matters is the music and whether you
feel it or not.
