A band is a lineup where several members play together on guitar, bass, drums, vocals, keyboards, and so on.
How it works
The rhythm section builds the foundation while the vocal and the lead take the front. Agreeing on roles and arrangement in rehearsal pulls the performance together.
Difference from related terms
Band usually refers to a pop or rock lineup, while ensemble is a broader word for playing together.
Rather than adding more notes, giving each instrument its own space makes the song easier to hear.
