Most or many
musicians have a website. Most or many musicians have an electronic press kit
(EPK). Unfortunately, most or many musicians do not combine these which means
that neither of them are being used effectively. You need to remember that
website aren’t just for fans or demonstrating professionalism. Bloggers,
editors, and promoters will use your website to gather and report information
about your music. Your EPK should not only be up-to-date and easily accessible
on your website, but should exist in several forms and ready to use for
whatever purpose. Your biography should be more than facts, it should tell your
unique story. This should be available in the Long Form (i.e., as long as it
needs to be…within reason). There should also be a 250-word version, a 100-word
version, and a Tweet version to suit all purposes. Without having all of these
available, someone writing about and/or trying to promote you may get info from
unreliable sources and either leave out important information or worse, get it
wrong entirely.
