Is "band" singular or plural?

Aerosmith is one band, therefore you should use the singular, "is." Aerosmith IS a band.

I've read the some of the other answers about it depending on the name of the band (for example: Rolling Stones are a band). This is incorrect. The Rolling Stones is ONE band, even though Stones ends in S. Therefore, The Rolling Stones IS a band, and they are one band and the word IS is used because they are a "singular" band. They are not two bands. If they were, THEN you would use the word ARE. Hope this helps.

Either way can work, depending on the structure and consistency of the sentence. You could say "U2 is working on a new album" or "U2 are working on a new album" and both would be correct. It usually doesn't matter whether you're referring to a band as a singular entity or a group of people, depending on the context. Just be sure to keep it singular or plural throughout given sentences.

Strictly speaking "Aerosmith is a band". But in recent decades many people have taken to thinking about the fact that a band, football team, etc has several members, and thus they write "Aerosmith are playing in my town next week" and "Manchester United have lost to Real Madrid" and so on.

Singular but they have a lot of people in them great bands now thats plural by the way. GSxx.

Band is singular. for it to become plural it will be bands

if you are talking about the band itself it is "it" and "is" but if you are talking about the group of people in the band it is "they" or "are"

i think it must agree with the number of the name.

aerosmith is a band

the who is a band

pink floyd is a band

the rolling stones are a band

stone temple pilots are a band

the counting crows are a band

la ropa is plural. but you make the adjectives singular

It depends on the name of the band.

If it was something like The Pixies, it would be plural

'The Pixes are my favorite band'

If it's Metallica then it would be 'Metallica is my favorite band.'

First of all its "both"...It can be "is a band" , and "are a band"...lol..Just different Kind of like an "action".."Is a band and are a band". Just two different ways to "say it"...lol...you tc/ God Bless you;)
