Unsigned bands

When we were given this project, I immediately thought that it was going to be hard to narrow a choice of bands down and find a genre suitable to reflect contemporary Britain. My first thoughts for an artist was a hip-hop artist in Norwich named, Charlie Snacks,

However, after some thought and consideration I thought that the genre wouldn't appeal to everyone because hip-hop originated from the USA which was performed by black artists. So, I started to search again for an unsigned artist. After browsing my iTunes to see if I had any unsigned artists on my libary I remembered a band that I used to listen to a lot back in 2009, but I thought they were signed. I emailed them via FaceBook after finding out beforehand that they weren't signed via there myspace- http://www.myspace.com/thecutawayuk

They later replied, saying:

After receiving the reply, I was obviously very happy that the band would let me use one of their songs to make my music video. The hard part now will be finding the song that will work well.
