Os Vampiros

Os vampiros are a 4 piece indie rock band from torquay, this includes Oli, Lloyd, Matt and Phil.

Os Vampiros play on a regular basis around the local party scene, from Indie bars like Rude Bar and Studio 22 to smaller pubs like the Spinning Wheel and to larger venues like the Hippo in Plymouth were the likes of Funeral For A Friend have recently played. All these places are typical indie scenes, which regularly get upcoming local bands to play. This means the type of audience to watch them play are likely to be a more younger audience between the ages of around 17-30 as pubs don't have an age restriction and younger people ten to try and get into them. The type of people is individual music lovers that don't follow the mainstream pop, r'n'b music. each will have their own individual preference but as a whole tend to all gather in the same places. Also with places like these there tend to be a variation of male and females there aren't more of one sex than the other. And because they are local, a part of the audience are likely to be dedicated fans and there friends.

the genre of the music is supported in the type of clothes they wear and the places that they play. the clothes they wear are the typical skinny jeans, polo tops/shirts combination, with pumps and maybe cardigans/hoodies/waistcoat. This is the type of clothing that is stereotypically matched with indie scene, although it means individual personal preferences are important.

The band have been described as sounding like arctic monkeys, Liam Gallagher kind of music, however they are way more mainstream than what Os vampiros sound like. And although they are smaller local band i don't feel they sound like that, and a lot of their fans seem to agree with me.
