Which pronouns to use for music groups with a singular name?

Posted on 28 January 2009 by admin

Ello asked:


There is a organisation called Big Bang, that consists of 5 members.
Is it grammatically scold to call a organisation with unaccompanied or plural (because of a members..) terms?

Examples:

Big Bang [has/have] appeared upon multiform song shows.
Big Bang [has/have] distinguished [their/its] entrance anniversary.

I do not know.. should there should there be coherence with a pronouns? It seems ungainly to call a organisation “it”, though if we make use of “they”.. regulating “Big Bang have..” additionally seems off to me.
