Notes

Never link years, unless accompanied by dates.
Please see the WikiProject Musicians project page for more information about this template. Most fields are optional and the row will simply be omitted if no data is supplied.

Colors

The infobox is color-coded to provide a quick indication of the type of group/performer, e.g. solo artist, orchestra, etc. This is similar to the color schemes used by Wikipedia:WikiProject Albums and other projects. Please discuss additional types that need to be accounted for on the talk page.

The user doesn't choose the colors directly: he simply specifies a name which identifies the type of performer, and is indicated, on each bar, in the table below.

solo_singer	All vocal solo artists (includes singer-songwriters and singer-instrumentalists)
non_vocal_instrumentalist	All non-vocal instrumentalists
non_performing_personnel	All producers, songwriters, arrangers, engineers, and other non-performing personnel
group_or_band	All groups, bands, crews, or other non-classical music ensembles
cover_band	Cover and tribute bands (same as Wikipedia:WikiProject Albums' color for covers/tribute albums)
classical_ensemble	All orchestras and other classical music ensembles
temporary	Temporary collaborative projects
