Research and Planning- Taylor Swift

The Genre route that Tash and I would like to go down is Pop. This is based on a Taylor swift type singer that shows meaning and thoughtfulness in their lyrics. 

Taylor Swift is an artist with a mixture of Genres of both Pop and Country. We found out that the artists that Taylor Swift is influenced by Shania Twain,Dolly Parton and Patsy Cline which both go down the Country/ pop genre route too, however as Taylor Swift is a younger singer than these, her target audiences and fans will be much younger than the others. Shania Twain was a particular favourite of Taylor's and looked up to her more than anything. It was her inspiration, to produce music to Shania's quality as she has the same music taste of the same genre to her. 

I have searched on Facebook 'Like' Pages, Fan pages and Taylor Swifts official verified Twitter Feed and the messages that come through to her from her fans tend to be from the age of about 15-28. The majority of the fans that commented and liked her music were female, but there was a minority of boys that thought she was good looking and some male singers that found inspiration from Taylor Swifts work. 

From this example we can see that Taylor swift has been in spirational and that the fans that listen love the lyrics because they sing about peoples feelings which could be relevant to the person at the time therefore are able to relate to the artists lyrics.
