    {
       "artistName": $("#nameSurnameID").val()
            ,
            "Country": $("#country").val()
            ,
            "bDate" :  $("#demo1").val()
            ,
            "dDate" :  $("#demo2").val()
            ,
            "bio" : $("#bioID").val()


    },
    function(response){
            alert(response);
        });

You cannot upload files like this via AJAX. If you do not need to support old browsers, you can use the form plugin which supports AJAX file uploads and can even fallback to a hidden iframe for older browsers.
