Band Promotion involves a variety of topics.  In order to promote your band you'll need a number of materials including:

  • Band Press Kit - The Band Press Kit is a valuable resource in Band Promotion.  The Press Kit shows the potential venue or record company everything it needs to know in one simple package.  Most press kits should include a Band Photo, Band Bio, Newspaper Clippings, Gig List, Song List, Booking Info, and Demo CD.  Visit the links above for detailed information on completing your band press kit for band promotion.  Also check out a Sample Outline of a Band Press Kit.
     
  • Band Demo - The Band Demo CD is a necessary tool for band promotion as well.  This should be included with your band press kit.  Only add 3 or 4 of your best songs on the demo disc as most venue bookers don't have time to listen to a whole cd of music from your band.  The quality of the demo should depend on the submission.  If your submitting to record companies you'll want a great quality product, while submitting to a local bar you just want to get the point across.  Visit our Band Demo page and Demo Submission Page for more information on the topic.
     
  • Band Website - Creating a website for you band gets your band an internet presence.  Potential fans or venues can search the world wide web and potentially find your band.  Always add your Bands URL web address to the Band Press Kit, Band Demo, and Band Business Cards.  Link your bands website to band listings websites in your area.  For Example, Pittsburgh Live Music in Pittsburgh PA allows local bands to list their band website and type of music. Also, you can have fans join your mailing list on your website.  This allows you to build a mailing list in order to email fans in the future when band gigs are coming to their area.
