Why I Chose Acoustic Pop
I chose the genre Acoustic Pop because it is a popular genre with many famous artists who create music within it. It is widely-recognised and therefore has a big market for new up-coming artists.

Commonalities in Acoustic Pop Magazines
Acoustic Pop Magazines usually have a plain background on the front cover, with a mid-shot of a solo artist, or a full-body shot of a group or band. Sometimes they would use a full-body shot of a solo artist in order to include an accessory such as a guitar.

More Commonalities
The artist or artists on the front cover usually have quite a docile expression on their faces which is also reflected in their music.

What to include on my Front Cover
On my front cover, I should include plain colours in the background and clothes of the artist, and also have an ‘artist’ who has a relaxed pose and expression. I should have the artist/s where smart-casual clothes such as a shirt and skinny jeans.
