Lewis had always loved music from when he was as young as 10. With his best friend for several years, Alfie Morgan, also enjoying the same genre of music as well as enjoying the same artists, they decided to make a band named Collided where they would produce music and tour round Leicestershire playing their most popular songs. Collided are mostly liked by the younger generation with people the same age bracket as them as they seem to understand their music more.

Name: Alfie Morgan

Age: 17

Music genre: Indie/Alternative

Musical influences: Rat Boy, Slaves and Sundara Karma

Members: Brad Lewis (2 members)

Morgan was brought up like any other child. He used to play the guitar when he was younger and was under the influence of music. Especially indie music. He was also in to his fashion, wanting to always look cool with but instead of buying the latest clothes, he was in to buying vintage clothes like other influential artists within the indie genre. His craze to make music started when he was looking for his guitar in the shed and realised that he should never have had a break from playing as it was what he loved doing but also what he was born to do. He started his career playing at local pubs within Leicestershire to gain popularity but his career really started after his first song was made with his mate, Brad Lewis.

Fashion mood board

 
I have chosen the theme of my fashion to be vintage and "old skool" as this is close to indie styled fashion which is what I have decided to set my magazine on. Indie fashion such as the top left picture of the lead singer of rat boy, Jordan Cordy, is a good example of Indie fashion along with the second picture along in the top left of Gosha Rubchinskiy.

Music mood board



As I want my music magazine to be orientated around the Indie genre, although there are artists which are not Indie within this mood board, I made it to get an idea of which artists could be featured on my magazine.
