About this event

Learn all there is to know about building an Electronic Press Kit (EPK) from Bandzoogle’s own Communications Manager, Melanie Kealey!

Join us for a workshop covering all the steps in creating your very own Electronic Press Kit, as well as the best methods to build one for your website! The workshop will be led by Bandzoogle’s Communications Manager and EPK expert, Melanie Kealey!

The Independent Music Business series is brought to you by the Ottawa Music Industry Coalition in partnership with Edwards Creative Law, with the support of Bandzoogle and the City of Ottawa. The virtual IMB series is free for all to attend.

Melanie Kealey is the Communications Manager at music website platform Bandzoogle. In addition to overseeing the Bandzoogle blog, she regularly writes posts with helpful website tips for musicians. Melanie also coordinates external communications including email marketing and social media. She lives in Ottawa with her two young sons and husband, musician Tyler Kealey.

From the beginning, the Bandzoogle team has had one goal: to empower artists to build effective websites for their music. It all started in 1999, with a single band website built by Bandzoogle’s founder Chris Vinson. Chris launched Bandzoogle in late 2003. As the needs of musicians have evolved, so has Bandzoogle’s mission to help them succeed online. Hired as Bandzoogle’s first support tech in 2007, Stacey Bedford became CEO in 2018. Named as a Billboard Digital Power Player in 2019, Stacey has helped expand the platform to include everything a musician needs to run a successful business online. From mobile design options, to commission-free music and merch sales, built-in crowdfunding, and fan subscriptions tools, now tens of thousands of artists from around the world use Bandzoogle to create beautiful websites and power their direct-to-fan marketing and sales.

Testimonials From Our Clients

Will definitely reach out again.

Michael Duboff was thorough and patient explaining a rather problematic publishing contract that I needed a review for, and his expertise and experience in the legal realm of publishing provided a lot of insight I couldn’t have gotten otherwise. His advice was much needed, and I also greatly appreciated the encouragement he gave me to negotiate for a set of terms I was comfortable with. I will definitely reach out to him should I find myself in such a situation again.
