TREND WATCHING: In his latest column, to be headlined "The Indie Offensive," our own I.B. Bad considers some intriguing questions about the current phenomenon. For example: "How does the growing strength of the indie sector impact the majors' independent distribution arms--RED, ADA and Caroline--which continue to play a huge role in the indie sector? Will we see a move away from their present control of digital distribution? The Lumineers switched from ADA to INgrooves Fontana for digital, while The Civil Wars' album was self-distributed through Tunecore (digital) and Super D (physical)." The full column will appear tomorrow morning. (3/14p)
