What musicians need from a link in bio
Most link in bio advice is written for influencers with a shop. Musicians have different jobs for that one link:
- Get the new release played. Every extra tap between a fan and your song loses listeners. A player on the page beats a list of logos.
- Sell tickets. Tour dates need a city, a date, a ticket link and a way to remember the show.
- Move merch. T-shirts, vinyl and digital downloads live on different stores.
- Own your audience. Streaming algorithms and social reach come and go. A mailing list of fans who want tour dates first does not.
- Look professional to bookers. Promoters and venues check your link before they reply.
Recommended musician link in bio page setup
This is the layout for a normal month. Blocks, top to bottom:
- Header with a press photo and one line: genre, city and what is new.
- Music block with your latest single or album from Spotify, Apple Music or SoundCloud. Fans can press play without leaving.
- Link buttons for the other places people listen: Apple Music, YouTube Music, Bandcamp, JioSaavn, whatever your fans use.
- Video block with your newest music video or live session.
- Event blocks, one per show, with the city, venue, date, ticket link and an add-to-calendar button.
- Link buttons for merch, with thumbnails: “Tour tee”, “Vinyl pre-order”. Link to Bandcamp, your Shopify store or wherever you sell.
- Email signup with a clear promise: “Tour dates before anyone else.” Signups are saved to your dashboard; Pro exports them as CSV for your email tool.
- Tip jar (Pro) for fans who want to support directly.
- PDF viewer with your EPK or tech rider, for bookers and press.
- Social icons across the bottom.
Small details that help
- Use your cover art as the thumbnail on each release button, so fans recognise the song before they read the title.
- Write the city first on every show (“Pune, 12 Oct” before the venue name). Fans scan for their city, not the venue.
- Keep only the latest one or two releases near the top. Older music belongs on your streaming profile.

Release week vs tour season: reorder, do not rebuild
Release week
Add a Countdown block at the top for the release date and time. When the song is out, remove the countdown and put the Music player first. Add an Announcement bar, “New single out now”, for the first week.
Tour season
Move the Event blocks straight under the header. Add an Announcement bar for your nearest or lowest-selling show, like “Bengaluru, 40 tickets left”.
Let the page change itself (Pro)
Biolinko Pro can schedule links and blocks with a start and end time. Schedule the new single to appear at midnight on release day and the countdown to disappear at the same moment, or have each show drop off the page after it happens. Pro is $5/month (₹299 in India), or $48/year.
How to set up your music link in bio, step by step
- Sign up free and choose your band or artist name, for example biolinko.me/yourband.
- Pick the Musician template, or start blank and add blocks from the setup list.
- Paste your Spotify, Apple Music or SoundCloud link into the Music block. The player appears automatically.
- Add one Event block per show with ticket links. Fans get an add-to-calendar button.
- Add your merch buttons and your Email signup.
- Copy your page link into your Instagram and TikTok bios, your YouTube channel links and your Facebook Page.
- After a week, check your analytics: which button gets tapped, which countries your fans are in, and which platform sends the most visits. Plan shows and posts around it.
Selling music and taking tips from your page
On Pro, the Tip jar and Product blocks let fans pay by UPI, card, netbanking or wallet straight into your own Razorpay account. Biolinko takes a 0% platform fee, so only Razorpay's processing fee applies. The Product block delivers digital files automatically, which suits stems, sample packs, sheet music or a live recording.
Razorpay onboards businesses in India, so this is built for Indian artists. If you are based elsewhere, keep selling on Bandcamp or your store and add those links as buttons; the page works the same way.
Where Biolinko is not the best fit for musicians
If you mainly need per-release smart links that detect a fan's favourite streaming app, or pre-save campaigns run through your distributor, a dedicated music smart-link service does that better. Many artists use both: a smart link per release, and one Biolinko page as the permanent home that points to it.
Biolinko also does not send newsletters. The Email signup block collects fans; you send the actual tour announcement from the email tool of your choice after exporting the list (CSV export is on Pro).
