U2 Questions Applied to Colbie Caillat

Colbie Caillat is a 22 year old singer/songwriter who is probably most known for her song, "Bubbly." All of her songs are light, warm and have a easy feel to them. Colbie writes her songs and also plays the acoustic guitar.

What differences, if any, emerge between female and male fans?
-I think that there probably is a difference between male and female fans of Colbie Caillat. As a girl, her lyrics and beautiful voice first caught my attention. I like to listen to her music when I'm relaxing or just hanging out. A guy on the other hand might want to see what she looks like or if shes pretty. Also I think that girls may be able to relate to her music and lyrics. Although her song, "Bubbly" was played on many radio stations and I saw male and females both enjoying it.


What other kinds of demographic factors such as age, class or ethnicity shape her fan base?
-I don't think that people of a specific age would be more inclined to listen to Colbie. I've heard people my age listen and people my parents age that like listening to her music. I think parents with young kids would not mind them listening to her either, especially compared to other artists these days. Most of her songs are about love so I don't think that belonging to a specific class or people of different race would listen to her music more than others. Many, can probably relate to her lyrics and the the things she sings about.
