image
An image of the act, sufficiently clear for display at 220 pixels' width. Set to only the image name, e.g. Example.png

. Size for landscape images should be 250.
landscape

when using wide, short images. The image height (rather than width) will be limited to 200 pixels.
background

Each category is color-coded to provide a quick indication of the type of group/performer, e.g. solo artist, orchestra, etc. The color scheme is similar to the one used by WikiProject Albums and other projects. Please discuss additional types that need to be accounted for on the template's talk page. This field is mandatory.

can be found in Category:Infobox musical artist with missing or invalid Background field.
birth_name
This field is only relevant for individuals. The artist's name at birth.
alias
For listing official stage names for the act or solo artist other than the name in the |name=
parameter. Also for the solo artist's legal name(s), or other officially authorized names that differ from their birth name. This field is not for nicknames such as "The Godfather of Soul" (James Brown) or "Nippy" (Whitney Houston), which are not the artists' official names.
birth_date
This field is only relevant for individuals.
The artist's date of birth; it is preferable to use {{Birth date and age}} (for example {{Birth date and age|1949|12|31}}
) to display current age. For dead people, use {{Birth date}} (for example {{Birth date|1949|12|31}}
. Also list the place of birth using the birth_place parameter, if it differs from the artist's hometown (see field "origin" below). Omit the country if it does not differ from that specified at the field "origin".
{{Birth date and age|Year|Month|Day}}
birth_place
This field is only relevant for individuals. The artist's place of birth.
[[City]], State/Province, Country
origin
The city from which the singer or group originated (that is, the city where the group was founded; or the city where individual performers started their career, should it not match the location of their birth). If the city is not known, specify at least the country. Note: as for "Born" and "Died", there is no need to additionally place a {{Flagicon}} to represent the nationality.
[[City]], [[State/Province]], [[Country]]
death_date
This field is only relevant for individuals. The artist's date of death (same format as birth_date; but use {{Death date and age}}).
death_place
This field is only relevant for individuals. The artist's place of death (same format as birth_place).
genre
The genre or genres of music performed by the act. Aim for generality (e.g. [[Hip hop music|Hip hop]]
rather than [[East Coast hip hop]]
). Genres should be separated with a comma delimiter. Genres should be wikilinked. Use piped links where needed, for example: [[Pop music|Pop]], [[Rock music|rock]]. Note: most genres are not proper nouns and should not be capitalized. However, the first word in a list of multiple genres should be capitalized.
occupation
This field is only relevant for individuals. Roles the artist has fulfilled (e.g. musician, songwriter, producer, etc). For artists that have participated in other forms of entertainment, outside of music (such as acting), these occupations can be included if notable.
instrument
This field is only relevant for individuals.
General class(es) of instrument(s) played by the artist, e.g. guitar
or violin
. Include singing
, rapping
, beatboxing
and/or scat singing
if relevant. Separate multiple entries with commas.
years_active
Period(s) during which the act was or has been active. Only calendar year ranges or a single calendar year should be listed; for example, do not distinguish between the period Paul McCartney was in The Beatles and his solo career. Use commas to separate non-consecutive periods, and denote ranges with an unspaced en dash (e.g. 1993–2004, 2005–present). See WP:DATE#Longer periods and WP:MOS#En dashes. For groups only use {{Start date}}.
label
The record label or labels to which the act has been signed, as a comma-separated list. Omit parenthetical dates; save that information for the main article. Drop the word "Records" from the end of any label's name (e.g. use [[Universal Records|Universal]]
rather than [[Universal Records]]
.) Separate multiple entries with commas.
associated_acts
This field is for professional relationships with other musicians or bands that are significant and notable to this artist's career.
This field can include, for example, any of the following:
- For individuals: groups of which he or she has been a member
- Other acts with which this act has collaborated on multiple occasions, or on an album, or toured with as a single collaboration act playing together
- Groups which have spun off from this group
- A group from which this group has spun off
Separate multiple entries with commas.
The following uses of this field should be avoided:
- Association of groups with members' solo careers
- Groups with only one member in common
- Association of producers, managers, etc. (who are themselves acts) with other acts (unless the act essentially belongs to the producer, as in the case of a studio orchestra formed by and working exclusively with a producer)
- One-time collaboration for a single, or on a single song
- Groups that are merely similar
website
The single web address for the act's primary official website. Use {{URL}} as {{URL|example.com}}.

Past members of the group, listed in order of joining with no other notation than names. If a group is inactive, all members should be listed here, and none in the "current_members" field. In some exceptional cases (e.g. The Beatles), and only with a clear consensus, members at the time of dissolution may be listed in the "current_members" field. Separate multiple entries with <br />
.
notable_instruments
This field is only relevant for individuals. Particularly noteworthy models or custom musical instruments with which the artist is strongly associated (e.g. Jimi Hendrix's Fender Stratocaster and Gibson Flying V guitars or Tori Amos's Bösendorfer piano). Separate multiple entries with commas.
