This page has tips about creating both a great F-List listing and also a separate Electronic Press Kit (EPK). Both are important and essential for your marketing and promotion efforts and although there will be quite a lot of information that can be used in both they are different formats for potentially differing audiences. You can point anyone in the direction of your F-List listing in one easy web url, and your EPK you can send to people as a pdf or via a Dropbox folder or a Googledrive with separate documents in. A crucial difference is that your F-List listing is viewable publically and can be tagged with searchable information and EPK’s tend to be sent to industry or media directly so are usually for internal music business contacts only. 

Here are top tips on how to make the most out of both formats….

As highlighted above an artist also needs an EPK as a professional tool to promote yourself effectively to media, promoters, and industry professionals. An EPK provides a centralised and easily accessible collection of artist information, such as biography, music samples, high-quality images, press coverage, performance history, and contact details. This helps streamline the process of booking gigs, securing media coverage, and attracting potential collaborators, ensuring that you present a cohesive and polished image that sells you as an artist.
