Sometimes bands have a name that makes you think it's a single person (Buffalo Springfield, Lukas Graham) or a single artist uses a moniker that sounds like a name of a band (Passenger for example). Have you ever confused a single artist with a band or vice versa?

I fully thought The Ready Set was a band to the extent that I even had a name in my head for another member (Daniel). Where I got that name from I'm still trying to figure out to this day.
My friend just learned that Bon Jovi (the band) is in fact constituted of multiple people a few weeks ago.

At first I though Cascada was only one singer (but is an Euro-Dance group, consisting of 3 persons)

I thought The Weeknd was a band Same here, but that's because there was a terrible band in my country of this name (except it was The Weekend, not The Weeknd), that's why I had this association in my mind when I first heard of him when "Love Me Harder" became a hit.

I thought La Roux was one person when they came out. Now they are, haha. So I don't feel so bad. I thought Goldfrapp was a solo act as well. And I also thought Marina & The Diamonds was a band.

Oh yes When I found out it was CeeLo Green singing it blew my mind. I thought it was a person for almost a decade.

Where would you guys put the Pussycat Dolls? Technically they're a band because all of the girls are members, but all of the vocals are Nicole's...so...

Nicole didn't do 100% of the PCD's vocals. I mean, Melody got a few adlibs here and there. :sip2:

Lol I remember on Behind the Music when Nicole "revealed" that she was the only one doing vocals. She was so dramatic about it.

I didn't know Rae Sremmurd was a duo and not a person until like two days ago.

I thought the Tony Rich Project (everyone's favorite thing: a OHW) was a group, but it was just one guy trying to pass himself off as a group because he thought people would take him more seriously than if they knew he was a soloist.
Conversely, I thought Florence + the Machine was the stage name for one woman.

Owl City.
I still don't buy the idea that Lukas Graham is a band. He might have some instrumentalists following him around, but the song is about when HE was 7 years old. And what HIS mama said to him. Not anybody else. So I'm not buying it. Is Drake a band just because he usually works with Noah Shebib? I don't think so. So I don't buy the idea that he is a band.
Same with La Roux. "English singer and songwriter La Roux has released two studio albums, one mix album, two extended plays, one mixtape, five singles, two promotional singles and seven music videos." lol.
