What to do next

Venues, promoters and press get a lot of these. Run through this list before you send yours.

Next: the EPK checklist, for what goes in an electronic press kit and what to check before you send it.

Paid help from Well Made Plays

We build the full press kit around it.

We write the bios and booking pitch so they sound like you, and gather your photos, credits and links in one place, ready to send.

Not sure what you need? A 30-minute call (opens in a new tab) costs $49, and the fee comes off any project you book within 30 days. Flat fees, never a percentage of what you earn.

What a one-sheet is

A one-sheet is a single page that tells a venue, promoter or writer who you are and why they should care, in the time it takes to read it. It's the front page of an EPK (electronic press kit), the fuller set of photos, bios, videos and press you send someone who wants more.

What goes on it

  • Your name, your sound in a few words, and where you're based.
  • A short bio: who you are, what it sounds like, and why someone should listen.
  • Highlights a booker can check: numbers, notable shows, playlists, press.
  • Your best music, with links that go straight to it.
  • Recent or upcoming shows, if they help your case.
  • A contact who answers.

What to leave off

Numbers you can't back up, quotes you can't attribute, every link you've ever made, and the long bio. If a reader can't check it, it costs you credibility. If it doesn't help them say yes, it's taking space from something that would.

How to send it

Attach the PDF, and paste the plain-text version into the body of the email so it reads even if nobody opens the attachment. Keep the email itself short: who you are, what you're asking for, and the dates or details that matter.

Questions

What's the difference between a one-sheet and an EPK?

A one-sheet is one page that goes in your first email. An EPK (electronic press kit) is the fuller set behind it, for someone who wants more: more photos, longer bios, videos, press and technical details.

Should I include streaming numbers?

Only numbers you can back up and that help your case: real monthly listeners, ticket counts, notable playlists. A booker can check them, so an inflated number costs you more than a small one.

Is my photo uploaded anywhere?

No. The photo and everything you type stay in your browser, on this device. Very large photos may not be kept after you close the page; save the PDF before you go.

How do I get a PDF on my phone?

Tap "Print or save as PDF". On an iPhone, tap the share button at the top of the print screen and choose Save to Files. On Android or a computer, choose Save as PDF as the printer.
