Selecting our artist and song...

From our target audience research we found that they want a solo singer and preferably female with a strong upbeat and confident sound.
As our first step to finding an artist, we asked people we knew (friends and family) if they were singers themselves or whether they knew anyone that would happily take part in our project. We found that most of the suggestions were bands and this is not what our audience were looking for and the solo singers were more slow paced than confident and upbeat.
The second step was to search on social media sited to see if we could find a local artist suitable for our project. We looked on MySpace, Facebook and Twitter but we still had no success. 
The third step was to look at unsigned artist websites which we knew held a lot of unsigned artist that would be willing to let us use their music for publicity. However, we still found that these songs were not upbeat enough to what we wanted and some of the music was very outdated. We eventually found the artist Jessica Drake whose sample music we really liked. After hearing her song, we went to her own website which we found her album and chose the song that we wanted from it.

Our chosen artist is Jessica Drake and the song is 'You You You'
