band profile

My Band is going to consist of 4 members I intend to model it around The Brighton based Maccabees are the sort of image that I am looking to achieve in my band they currently have 2 albums released including Colour it in, being the debut album and  Wall of Arms. But Orlando thought that Colour it in was a collection of songs put together rather than feeling like an album. For the while The Maccabees are signed to record company Fiction Records, who also have signed Crystal Castles, Stone Roses, Athlete, Elbow and White Lies. The band includes 5 Orlando Weeks, Hugo White, Felix White, Rupert Jarvis and Sam Doyle. Orlando with his unique way of dress. I think that I could reach my target audience if I achieved this sort of look because I am aiming to target 16-27 mixed gender. I think this would work because a lot of younger lads are trying to achieve the dress sense or Orlando, who will be seen as a role model by these young people. Also I think that it would work because a lot of young girls like the music that is made by the maccabees but more influential most young girls find Orlando attractive. The members of my band are  lead singer, guitarist then there will be a drummer, bass player and another guitarist. They have all been friends since they were toddlers. So the band is really close, but they only started playing music together when they were 15 now they are 21 so have been playing together for 3 years, but lead singer, guitarist Harvey has been playing for another 2 years, part of another band but he decided to start new the new band with his friends. Things have been going really well for the Durham based band. They've been playing some local gigs around Tyneside, they have also been reviewed my music magazine NME. This gave the band inspiration to keep on plugging through, they haven't had a easy 3 years with the Drummer having an alcohol addiction, but been to rehab for a year and is now back on track.
