Tips On Promoting Your Music For Free (VIDEO)

Have you just finished your project at Untold Stories Recordings, the premier recording studio in Chicago? Congratulations! Now it's time to promote your music and make it heard. Here are three valuable tips to get your music out there, and the best part is, they won't cost you a dime!

Tip #1: Create an EPK (Electronic Press Kit). Craft a concise, one-page email that includes a captivating picture of your album cover, two paragraphs introducing yourself and describing your project, and links to all your social media profiles and contact information. This EPK serves as a powerful tool for sharing your story and connecting with potential listeners.

Tip #2: Enhance your promotional efforts by providing a Google Drive link containing a press release in PDF format. Additionally, organize separate folders with clean and explicit versions of your songs. This ensures easy access for media outlets and DJs who may require different versions of your tracks.

Tip #3: When it comes to promotion, never fall for the temptation to pay for fake reviews, inflated plays, or fabricated interviews. Authenticity is key! Instead, focus on submitting your music to college and community radio stations, local blogs, magazines, zines, relevant Facebook groups, and even local and college newspapers. These outlets may have smaller audiences, but they genuinely care about music and can become a passionate fan base that will share your work with their friends. Don't waste your hard-earned money on scammers who prey on dedicated artists.
