How often do you stumble upon a new band or artist online–whether through browsing profiles or from a hot tip–and after clicking ‘play’ to hear the quality of the songs, you start to read the BIOGRAPHY or ABOUT section to find a bland, rambling string of sentences about how so-and-so met so-and-so in high school and they started practicing, had 10 drummers, then 8 bassists and so on…We all know how the story goes from there. Is any of this intriguing to readers? Is it even relevant to the music that you’re listening to? Most likely, new readers will skip over the rest and hope that the music alone is enough to keep them on the site.

A captivating biography is one of the most crucial elements for wrangling new listeners and fans, keeping them interested in the artist and the music – covering the facts that are truly important: who is this artist? where have they been? what depth is there behind the music?

What a bio is NOT!

While it’s one of the most important elements to depict the nature of an artist, a biography is NOT a vessel for exaggerated hype or biased opinion. The work should be a focused, honest and accurate portrayal of the artist through salient facts and engaging narrative. By recounting the elements that brought the artist and work to life, a great bio provides clear depth to the true quality that lies within. No need for buzz words here, folks. By properly assembling a quality biography, the interesting components that make up the quality work will surface naturally.

It’s easy to see through an overdone attempt to create false substance. Remember: interesting facts are far more fascinating than sensationalized distortions.
