about their favourite artists, upcoming/new artists, indie fashion trends

Typical Audience Profile

There are a growing number of people that enjoy the nature of indie music, and they appear to be quite open minded about who they like because of their individual traits. For this reason, you could put a range of different people on the cover of the magazine and they wouldn’t be prejudiced or assume anything about the artist

This gave me the freedom to choose whoever I liked, and in the end I went with a band consisting of three white British teenagers
