Our band is a 3 piece band named Pilgrim, featuring myself on lead vocals and electric guitar, Alice on bass guitar and Gavin on a drum kit and possibly backing vocals. The name was inspired by the Scott Pilgrim franchise as we knew this would be a popular film amongst our target audience. We were initially going to have our friend Josh as the bassist, but realised this would make us a very stereotypical male indie-rock band, and the audience for this is already pretty much saturated. Having a female bassist give our band a more fresh and original feel, for which we can find an existing audience and 'package' the product differently to appeal to them.
The fact that me and Gavin both play the instruments we will be playing in the video also means that we can make the performance look genuine and natural. Alice plays classical guitar and so will be able to transfer her skills onto a bass guitar, giving her performance also a more genuine feel.
