Character

AlunaGeorge

Cruze

AlunaGeorge have a very nice easy going personality. They are very good friends and have been since the beginning of their career. They express their character in a way that is lovely which appeals to the audience.

They met without any intention to become a duo - and so they were just having fun, strengthening their relationship as musical artists 

Both Mahalia and Edward are very good friends - after a couple of years of working together they consider themselves best friends as they spend most of everyday together. This would be favourable to their audience as a good friendship is something that is highly regarded.
