OkGo


The name of this particular band is OkGo. The band name comes from their art teacher, saying "Ok Go!" while they were drawing.

They are a very unusual creative group; this is seen when looking at their album cover by the use of vibrant bold colours in the flowers. Red; is a strong colour that conjures up a range of seemingly conflicting emotions from passionate love to violence and warfare. White; is purity, cleanliness and innocence. Like black, white goes well with almost any colour. Another colour that they have used is yellow; It is a warm colour, like red, has conflicting symbolism, On the one hand it denotes happiness and joy.

The use of different colours and how they have been arranged within the image make you feel happy, jolly and excited.

Also the use of bold lettering in the title draws your eye to the name of the band, making it stand out. The style of the cover is that of the re-occurring flowery and colourful error which was in the 60s.

I like how they have used a sketched image; this creates a 3D dimensional look. The genre is indie rock. The target audience of this group ‘Ok Go’ would be for a female audience 17-29.
