Background color
The infobox color is key-coded to provide a quick indication of the type of group/performer, e.g. solo artist, orchestra, etc. This is similar to the color schemes used by WikiProject Albums and other projects. Please discuss additional types that need to be accounted for on the template's talk page.

The user doesn't choose the colors directly, rather the code provided in the Background field identifies the type of performer. The possible background colors, with the corresponding names, are indicated on the bars in the table below.
