Web design for musicians, bands and music
groups - our services


The Website Design Studio services includes specialist website design for musicians.

Why do musicians need websites?

You may be a solo artist, a vocalist or play a musical instrument. You may be part of a choir, orchestra or band.

Whatever your involvement with music, a website will help promote your talent and advertise your services, concerts or gigs.

Your visitors will be able to see what you do, hear samples of your repertoire and even download or buy tracks. You can also use a music website to inform visitors of special events, concerts or your fees for commissioned performances. No serious musician should be without one.

Our packages

We offer a number of packages designed to meet the web design needs and budgets of professional musicians of all kinds ranging from classical musicians and vocalists to rock bands. The standard packages designs are based on the normal web page layout (header, main content area and a footer). If you require something different, the bespoke package is probably more appropriate.
