Prep of Pitch

In my 25 word pitch I plan to outline my ideas.

Artist profile 

Name: Ruban Royal

Age: 17-19 (haven't quite decided)

Nationality: either a Liverpudlian or a 'Geordie' (Newcastle)

Style icons: Miles Kane, Bradley Wiggins, Paul Weller, Mods, Alex Turner 

Occupation: part time job at a supermarket or something 

Education: Last year of A levels or something similar 

I will talk about my ideas on my magazine name, and why I have chosen them, also why my artist is called what he is. I will also outline, if possible my ideas of creating a simplistic magazine, that is mainstream but has a feature on my artist and given music genre of indie rock.

Artist and Magazine Name

I have been brainstorming a lot over the past week or so about what to call my band, or artist.

I first came up with the idea of doing a band very similar to the Arctic Monkeys, but decided that this may be too much of a time consuming task as I had no idea, and still have no idea, on who I would use as my models.

I then thought that I could go the other way with it, maybe create a band that are a little bit rough around the edges going along the looks of Miles Kane and Liam Gallagher. But again came to the conclusion that maybe just doing a single artist would be easier. 

With this is mind I began to think about names for just one artist. Several names came to mind but they didn't seem to work.

I had a brain wave, I've decided to call my artist Ruban Royal.

I'm still working on the name of my magazine but I have a couple of names in mind, I'm trying to stick with the theme of royalty, fashion styles that I plan to base my artist around, props, and iconic people around the era of dress (1960-1980s)

Some ideas are:

Mod
Duke
Fort 
Lord

Final decision on MOD
