It's been two decades since the Indigo Girls launched their career with
their independently released debut album, 1987's Strange Fire. Now, after
entertaining millions of fans with their 10 major-label studio albums (nine
on Epic Records and one, 2006's Despite Our Differences, on Hollywood
Records), Emily Saliers and Amy Ray have come full circle with the
independent release of their new album, Poseidon And The Bitter Bug (to be
released March 24th, 2009) on their new label IG Recordings/Vanguard
Records.

With a Grammy, six Grammy nominations and a legacy of releases and tours
behind them, the Indigo Girls have outlasted many of their peers and forged
their own way in the music business. They've always thought independently,
and have always balanced their commitment to music and performing with an
unwavering commitment to social, political and environmental issues

The new album reunites the Grammy-winning duo with veteran producer,
arranger and keyboardist Mitchell Froom (Elvis Costello, Paul McCartney, Los
Lobos and others), who worked on the Indigo Girls' acclaimed 2006 release,
Despite Our Differences. Poseidon And The Bitter Bug is the work of career
artists at the top of their artistic game, invigorated to be doing what they
love best - writing and performing music. Poseidon is a release that affirms
their position not only as musical icons but as artists who continue to live
up to the high standards they've set for themselves. Now with their own
imprint, the Girls have come full circle; they've weathered the ups and
downs of the music industry and come out with their musical vision and
enthusiasm intact.
