      I think specifying what sort of a group an artist is is an important data point to have, whether they're a boy band like the Backstreet Boys or a rock band like The Beatles or a jazz orchestra (or Big Band) like The 8-Bit Big Band.

      it might be good to have a way to mark these types as ended (perhaps even with dates, if possible), as some groups could change their formation during the course of their existence, such as a vocal group picking up instruments or even a solo project gaining a second member and becoming a group

          this could also be extended to simply artist type if we also want to include types for person artists, like Project (STYLE-2297) or other artists, like Software (STYLE-2255) or Animal (STYLE-851)
