The document discusses the target audience for the song "Moaning Lisa Smile" by the alt-rock band Wolf Alice. It would likely appeal most to younger people ages 17-25 due to its less structured sound and rebellious lyrics. While alt-rock can appeal to both genders and people of any sexuality or race, Wolf Alice may attract more women and LGBTQ+ fans given the presence of a female singer and rebellious attitude of the genre. The music would probably not appeal to religious individuals or races other than Caucasian and Asian.

1. Audience Research
The song I’ve chosen for my music video is Moaning Lisa Smile by Wolf Alice.
They are an Alt-rock band that uses some Grunge conventions; this type of band
typically attracts a younger audience, mostly people ages 17 to about 25, due to
the less structured sound and the lyrics would typically relate to a younger,
rebellious yet passive attitude. I have shown people I know of different ages the
band and the younger of those enjoyed the songs, even danced to it, whereas the
response I got from the older people was that they didn’t like it and one person
said “it’s definitely a band for teenagers”.
Alt- rock does not tend to appeal to a particular gender, as there are elements in
this type of music for all genders, however due to the presence of a female lead
singer, this band in particular could attract a larger female audience.
Although Alt-rock can appeal to any one of any sexuality, it is likely that because
of the “rebel against the norm” attitude of this genre there will be more LGBT
people who are fans of this genre.
Similarly, Alt-rock can appeal to any race and religion, however it is unlikely that
someone who follows religion would like the nature of an alt-rock band, but it is
also a stereotype that Caucasian, teenage girls would like this type of band, this is
merely a stereotype but it is not expected that any other race, except from Asian,
would listen to a band like Wolf Alice. Alt-rock could have a following in Asian
countries because of places like Harajuku in Japan, which appreciate the
“different” and punk/rock culture.
