In this post, we want to talk about one of our favorite tools for all artists: BandPage.

Here’s a quick video about the platform:

This free platform has A LOT to offer and has so many ways to push your music out to the masses. Some of the top reasons to create a BandPage account include:

It saves time when updating your all your social media platforms. With BandPage, you can upload your new profile picture, biography, promo pictures, videos, music and tour dates. From there, BandPage automatically updates that information all across the web. Instead of spending an hour changing your profile picture on every social media outlet you’re on just to reflect a new single, upload it ONCE to BandPage and let them do the work for you. They’re able to make changes on your Facebook, Twitter, SoundCould, VEVO, Microsoft Groove, website, WordPress and more!
