You Me At Six's target audience!

Obviously, as You Me At Six's type of music fits into the style of music that indie scensters listen to they are also targeting it at this sub culture tribe. However we thought it would be useful again to research further into the actual band's fans and audiences to help us to identify whether their music is targeted at any other types of audience.

We looked at their Facebook page to see the types of people that had 'liked' it. The image below shows this.

71 of my Facebook friends have liked the band's page. The majority of these people are age ranged between 15- 20 and are mixed genders. This can help give us a more fixed general idea of who exactly these indie scensters are (how old etc)
Because both boys and girls have liked this fan page it shows us that the band are targeting their music at both genders, however some of their videos suggest that they are targeting more to girls such as 'stay with me' as the girls are able to connect to the video more , romantically. Although we want to try and target our video at boys as well as girls so we are open to a much larger audience. We will try to create a story that both girls and boys can relate to.

We also thought it would be useful to see what other band's pages our Facebook friends had liked so we searched profiles to find this information out. We came across artists such as;
- The Klaxons
-Vampire Weekend
-30 Seconds to Mars
- Spank Rock
Three of the bands that we have come across here were mentioned in my earlier research into indie scensters. This again shows that some of these 71 friends are likely to fit into this sub-culture tribe.
