How to add audio to your PromoKit
If you are a musician or singer, audio samples can be one of your greatest assets in securing more gig opportunities. Upload a selection that shows off your skills and represents the type of songs included in your setlists.
To manage your audio, log in to your control panel, go to Edit PromoKit, and select Audio from the menu.

Fill in the details about your audio sample.
Song Title: This is what will be displayed with the file in the Audio section of your PromoKit, so make sure it's correct with no typos.
Artist: This field is optional, but if you want to display the name of the artist performing on the sample, this is where to do that. This can be helpful if you feature more than one performer in your act.
Original Artist: This field is required, but it will not be displayed on your PromoKit. We collect this so we can report the song to the appropriate licensing company. If you are the original artist, just put your name.

Specify who owns the rights to the song you are uploading.
GigSalad covers all costs associated with streaming licensed music on our site, so we need to know to whom to attribute your song. We've included links on the page to both BMI & ASCAP catalogs for you to do a quick search for your song. If you don't find it on either one, or you own the song yourself, select "Neither."
