Lazie Indie Magazine: A Winning Team and a Movement!

Lazie Indie Magazine has achieved a significant milestone, winning the *Best Media Company

– Magazines and Blogs* award at *The Josie Music Awards*, the world’s largest independent

music awards. Kathryn Washington-Shipley, a contributor from the USA, proudly accepted

the honor on behalf of the team.

The magazine began as a small project by Jay Pillai (aka Lazie J) for indie musicians he

interviewed on YouTube. Despite no prior design experience, Jay created a professional-

looking magazine. He soon built a global team of contributors, starting with Inge

Zimmermann-Probst, Jørg, and Ann Elizabeth. Key members include Jay’s childhood musical

partner Manoj TN, *The Granddaughter of Blues Tomiko Dixon, Galaxy107fm, Emma

Goldberg, Kathryn Washington-Shipley, Lyia Meta, Benita Rufus-Gassi, Sherise D’Souza,

Harikrishnan, Brian Tarquin, Adithya KM, Gowri Nair, and Sunder.
