Stephanie G. Mathis As an artist, you create songs that engage the emotions of your listeners. The same goes for website design: you want to create a memorable vibe while still staying on trend.
Color is an excellent way to attract attention, create a mood, and impact the impression your website visitors have of your band. We’ve added a new mood called ‘Bold’ to the theme selector. This will help you get your website started vibrantly. Our designers incorporated Brutalism concepts into vibrant color palettes in order to create 11 new designs that will help you jumpstart your creativity.
We’ll look at some of the templates to see how they can be used to set a new tone for your website.
Emphasize your call-to-action

Functionality over aesthetics
Brutalism is a concept that has gained popularity in web design because of its raw and stark appearance. It means that you should prioritize direct effectiveness over a flashy and overly-designed look on your music website. The Brutalist idea of simplicity and practicality influenced these contemporary design choices.
A tonic is a good option if your band wants to try out a new Brutalist style. This theme features complementary orange and turquoise hues and highlights your artist’s name at the top. This theme is perfect for a DJ or a party band.
Choose a colorful stock image.
It is a common mistake for musicians to try to find the perfect picture of themselves to use on their website. Band photos are a crucial part of your online brand. You can work around this by using images that reflect your style and your band photos on your About page.
Try out the updated Mezzo theme if this appeals to your sense of style. Mezzo has a side-set space for the menu, ready to be colored. This website template has a clean right side with lots of room for content and simple lines. The sidebar is static.
The default image is a geometric one, which fits in with the Brutalist aesthetic. However, you can change it to any other image. The image selector has a wide range of options, including abstract images that would work well with these themes.
Get experimental
A bold template might be the best choice for you if you like to take risks with your music. This energy can then be carried through to your site.
The Slice Template is a powerful template that comes ready to use. You can add show dates, bios, EPK, and much more. This template is dominated by red, and there’s no header image. It can accommodate a lot of content.
For inspiration, try a different font.
In addition to the new “Bold” mood, we have added seven fonts for all the website templates in the theme selector. You don’t have to change your entire website design. Try a different font to give your band’s name a little more life. Change the font of your content – a simple tweak, such as changing the style of text on your site, can give it a new lease of life.
The new font ‘Syne Mono’is featured in the ‘Bold” version of Eclipse. The new font will appear automatically if you use this updated version. This font (and others) can be used in any of our templates. You can use this font (and other new ones!) in any of our templates.
