We’re designing tools for artists. Want in?



Delfina is a creative consultancy that offers brand and communication services across industries. After working closely with artists and creative teams, we saw a recurring gap: music professionals often lack the tools to articulate their identity with clarity. Branding advice feels generic. Consultants are expensive. What’s missing is a set of self-guided tools built with artists, not just for them.
This beta is the start of that process.
We're developing a series of digital workbooks designed to support independent and professional music artists, starting with three foundational tools. We're inviting a small group of testers to help shape them.
-
As a beta tester, you’ll gain free access to our digital tools:
Write Your Artist Bio and Brand Archetypes for Music Artists, our first in-depth strategic workbooks.
Early access to The Music Artist Brand Audit, a quick-start tool to identify strengths in your brand, spot gaps, and plan next steps (to be released as a free resource later).
In return, we’ll ask for brief feedback, via a form, or a short Zoom conversation, to help us refine these and future tools.
You’ll be part of an ongoing design process. Your input will directly inform what comes next
-
We're looking for a mix of artists (emerging and established) who are already active in their practice.
You might be:
Releasing work independently and navigating every aspect of your brand yourself
Signed to a label, but looking for more control over how you're presented
Working with a team, but in need of better strategic tools
Clear on your artistic direction, but struggling to put it into words
This is not a call for beginners. We're inviting artists who are already in motion, and aware of the growing pains.
-
This beta is part of a larger collection of digital tools designed for working artists.
We’re starting small: three products, each practical and modular. But our aim is to grow this into something broader, shaped by the needs of real users. That’s where you come in.

The Brand Archetypes for Music Artists Workbook introduces an innovative framework rarely applied in music: the use of brand archetypes to help artists articulate the creative and emotional essence of their identity. Archetypes draw from deep-seated psychological patterns that shape how audiences connect with stories, personas, and ideas, making them a valuable lens through which artists can understand and influence perception.
This workbook is designed as both a research and brainstorming tool. It encourages artists to explore possibilities for creative direction, tone, and style, while also laying the groundwork for a coherent and strategic brand expression. It is an entry point into a broader brand-building process, best used in conjunction with other tools available in the Delfina shop.
