Mission statement

My music magazine will be based on the rock/indie genre. It will be designed in a way that is attractive and will stand out. it will have a specific colour scheme of red, black and white, and, it will be  informal in terms of the layout but everything will be clear and have relevance. My target audience will be teens( around 15/16) to young adults( up to 24/25) as that is usually the age for new bands, but that will not exclude anyone over the age group i have set if they are interested in the topics i have included. It will contain information on current popular bands, however will include information on smaller, not as popular bands aswell, to help promote. it will play a main role in the readers lives, as a source of entertainment, and to be informative of their favourite band.
