I believe the answer is:

tina turner

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'singer' is the definition.

'name a performer in band' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'name' could be 'tina' and 'tina' is located in the answer.
'performer' could be 'turn' ('turn' can mean a performer as well as their act) and 'turn' is present in the answer.
The remaining letters 'er' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).
