Your EPK.

Every claimed artist gets an auto-generated EPK (electronic press kit) at /a/<slug>/press. The page renders from your profile data — bio, photos, show calendar, streaming links — into one of nine compositionally distinct layouts you can switch between in the Studio.

Updated May 16, 2026

What

The EPK is the page bookers ask for.

When a venue's talent buyer asks for your EPK, they want a single URL or PDF with everything they need to make a booking decision in under 3 minutes.

That includes: your one-liner, a press bio (2-3 paragraphs), high-resolution photos, your top tracks, upcoming + past show dates, social links, and contact info. Your out4 EPK assembles all of this automatically from data you already filled in for your profile.

Note

No separate editing required
You don't maintain a parallel EPK profile. Edit your artist page in the Studio, and the press page (and the PDF download) update automatically.

How

How the page gets generated.

Three steps, all automatic.

1. Pull from your profile

We use whatever you filled out: bio, photos, location, genre tags, streaming links, booking link. If a field is empty, that section is hidden on the EPK page rather than rendered with a placeholder.

2. Render through the cadence

You pick a cadence (layout) in the Studio. Each cadence is a fundamentally different visual treatment — not a color theme, but different proportions, hierarchies, and ornaments. See the 9 layouts below.

3. Apply your overrides

Whatever palette, typography, and radius you set in the Vibe Studio overrides on top of the cadence's defaults. So two artists picking the same cadence end up with visibly different pages.

Layouts

9 cadences, each a different aesthetic.

Pick one in the Studio. You can change it any time.

9 PDF layouts (one per cadence)

press-sheet
gradient-statement
photo-led
hazard-spec
jcard-sleeve
deep-field
biomimetic
soft-essay
console-spec

A quick taxonomy

Some pair better with specific genres, but they're all general-purpose — feel free to pick whichever speaks to you.

  • press-sheet — Editorial, masthead-styled. Old-print-magazine feel.
  • gradient-statement — Bold gradient, big type. Pop / RnB / electronic.
  • photo-led — Full-bleed photo hero, sparse text.
  • hazard-spec — Industrial hazard stripes + technical-spec layout. Punk / metal / techno.
  • jcard-sleeve — Cassette J-card layout with numbered tracklist.
  • deep-field — Cosmic / astronomical, with star-field backdrop.
  • biomimetic — Network-node and hyphae motifs. Experimental / ambient.
  • soft-essay — Centered prose column, italic hero. Folk / singer-songwriter.
  • console-spec — Audio-engineering surface, peak-meter gauges. Producers / mix engineers.

PDF

The downloadable PDF.

The press page renders to PDF at /a/<slug>/press/pdf. Same vibe, same cadence, print-optimized.

The PDF is the artifact you actually email to bookers and journalists. Two paths to get it:

  • From your artist page — A Download EPK button at the top of /a/<slug>/press.
  • Direct URL — Append /pdf to the press URL. Useful for booking forms that take a URL.

Tip

The PDF re-renders on every page load, so you never have a stale copy floating around. Update your bio, and the next PDF download is current.

Audience

Who actually reads your EPK.

Knowing the reader keeps the content honest. Three audiences, mostly.

  • Talent buyers / bookers. They want: capacity- appropriate signal (have you sold out a 200-cap room?), genre fit, tour history. Your show calendar is the most important section for this reader.
  • Festival programmers / curators. They want: a coherent aesthetic, a one-line story, and photos that look good at festival-poster scale.
  • Journalists / blogs. They want: a tight bio they can quote, high-res photos for the article, and a way to listen (Spotify / Bandcamp link).

Note

Bio length
Aim for ~250 words for the press bio. Bookers won't read a wall of text; journalists need enough material to quote without copy-pasting. If you have more to say, link out to a longer page from the bio.
