What to Put in an Electronic Press Kit (EPK)

What to include in an electronic press kit: one-sheet, bios in 3 lengths, photos, music and video links, press, shows, audience and contact info.

An electronic press kit (EPK) is a short document that gives bookers, press and brands everything they need to say yes. Musicians use one to get shows and press; creators use a media kit to land brand deals. Clear and current beats fancy.

The one-sheet

Name, a one-line tagline, a strong photo, a short bio, quick facts, highlights and contact info, all on one page. Many people read only this page.

Bios in three lengths

Short (about 50 words), medium (about 150) and long (about 300), so editors can copy the one that fits.

Photos

A few high-quality, current photos in landscape and portrait, with a link to download full size.

Music, video and press

Your best 2 to 4 tracks or videos, plus any press quotes or features with links.

Shows or collaborations

Upcoming and notable past shows for musicians; past brand partnerships and results for creators.

Audience numbers

Only share numbers you can back up, and note the date. Honest, dated numbers build trust.

Contact and tech

Booking or business contact, and for musicians, stage and tech notes.

Checklist

Editable templates: the Electronic Press Kit Template ($10) has a 4-page Musician EPK and a 3-page Creator Media Kit in editable .docx (Word or Google Docs) with matching PDFs and a fill-in guide. Add your own photos. Made with AI assistance.
