Musicians
Bands and musicians make up one of the last vestiges where a website can be…out there! Your audience wants a flavourful reflection of your music: from smooth and sombre to wild and anarchic. Make it dance, make it shake, make it sing!
Music websites
Music is easy to discover, but hard to present properly. Most people hear a track then go looking for context. Who are you, what else have you released, where are you playing, and how do they stay in the loop?
A dedicated website gives you one clear place to answer those questions. It keeps your releases, videos, dates, press, and contact details organised, and it looks professional when you’re dealing with venues, promoters, bookers, journalists, and collaborators.
Most importantly, a websites operates independently and does not rely on tech giants to upend or remove your listings. For as long as you host it, it is yours to curate and control.
Peripheral designs
The musician’s reach goes far and wide across the internet. In promotion you’re likely to accumulate at least half a dozen platforms: Bandcamp, Reverb Nation, SoundCloud, SongKick and BandPage are just some, and that’s not including traditional social networks like Facebook and Instagram. They’re all free so why not take advantage? Amid the chaos, your website is the neat, clutter-free embodiment of your musical mission. It is the definite place for tour dates, gig diaries, video galleries and detailed bios, otherwise restricted by the social networks.
Graphics & branding
A cohesive brand pack that you can use across every band profile and marketing release.
Album & EP artwork
High quality album and EP artwork that turns idle browsers into excited buyers.
Press packs
Attractive booklets, PDFs and HTML newsletters that keep fans engaged and publishers interested.
Music Guides
Aspiring musicians may wish to consult these online music guides. I wrote them so that independent artists could make the most of platforms such as BBC Introducing, Spotify and Bandcamp.
Visual material
The irony of promoting music is that visuals are often at the forefront. Like it or not, albums are judged by their covers, not to mention banners, thumbnails and website design. With graphic design services I am able to provide album or EP artwork, cover photos and full branding of your band or solo project. The result feels cohesive; you could be spread across dozens of networks and still feel the visuals tie together.
Easy to update
Music moves quickly. Sites should not require technical knowledge to stay up to date. I build sites that make it straightforward to:
- Add a new release
- Update tour dates
- Post news
- Swap press assets
- Keep things consistent
- Add gated content for fans
