Bio necessary for instrumental submission?

Post by andrew206 » Fri Jan 11, 2008 7:52 am

Should I include a bio and/or photo with my instrumental music library submissions? Am I missing opportunities if I'm not? Could it help? Hurt?Silly, simple question - Thanks!

I wouldn't bother unless the listing specifically asks for it. For film/tv, what you look like etc doesn't matter - the music speaks for itself.Quote:Should I include a bio and/or photo with my instrumental music library submissions?

I write better after I haven't shaved for 3 days and I'm wearing my bathrobe and slippers. No one wants to see that!!
