Opeth Booking Agency Profile

Book Opeth for your next corporate event, function, or private party.
Opeth is a Swedish progressive metal/rock band, formed in Stockholm in 1990 by lead vocalist David Isberg. Despite the band's frequent personnel changes, Opeth has remained a force to be reckoned with in the metal world. After the departure of Isberg in 1992, Mikael Åkerfeldt took over as Opeth's frontman and primary songwriter, and has been the only constant member since.

Throughout their career, Opeth has consistently incorporated a wide variety of influences into their music, including folk, blues, classical, and jazz. They are also well known for their use of death growls and acoustic guitar passages, as well as their incorporation of Mellotrons into their work.

Opeth's first four albums were largely unsupported by live appearances, but since their 2001 release Blackwater Park, they have conducted multiple major world tours. They have released 13 studio albums, four live DVDs, four live albums, and two box sets, with their debut album Orchid being released in 1995.

While Opeth experienced moderate success in the United States with their eighth studio album, Ghost Reveries, it wasn't until the release of their ninth studio album, Watershed, in 2008, that they achieved major American commercial success. The album peaked at No. 23 on the Billboard 200 and topped the Finnish albums chart in its first week of release.

As of November 2009, Opeth had sold over 1.5 million copies of their albums and DVDs worldwide, with their albums Blackwater Park, Damnation, and Deliverance collectively selling 300,000 copies in the United States. The band's unique sound and constant evolution has earned them a dedicated fan base and critical acclaim throughout their career..

Frequently Asked Questions about booking Opeth to perform.

Many performers, actors, speakers and other talent like Opeth in certain cases will consider virtual appearances via live streaming. They perhaps may accept lower fees too. If you are seriously interested in booking Opeth or other talent shown on our site, we will research their desire and the specific fee for your live-streaming event or project request.
Opeth's current work schedule and location in relation to your event's type, date, budget, and locality will play a primary factor in the acceptance of booking Opeth for your party. As long as your funding is commensurate with the price range to book Opeth, CTI will propose your event to the official agency representing Opeth. After we consult with them, we will provide a personal and accurate quote that includes: final costs, availability, and actual interest in being hired for your specific event or party.
CTI can give you the accurate Opeth booking price once we submit your event details to their camp. "How much does it cost to book Opeth for an event?" is a frequent question we get. The final Opeth booking price is contingent on many variables and the booking fee we may show is based on a range derived from our past experience with what will Opeth charge for an event. An example fee to book Opeth is in the starting range of $15,000-$24,999. However, any recent popularity change would cause a price fluctuation well beyond this example. Also, their speaking fee might be different than the fee shown for the cost to perform or to just appear. Popularity, career stage, along with current demand will cause fluctuations in their speaking price as well. The final booking price may be more than what is shown, but you should at least have a budget within that range for them to consider an appearance, performance or speaking engagement.
CTI negotiates on behalf of professional event planners and talent buyers for paid appearances! We cannot give out direct contact information of the Opeth agent or help distribute fan mail, personal messages, gifts, requests for free appearances, or donations of time. The Opeth manager and agent will only work with us if we present them with funded offers for their client to work your event.
There is low probability to book Opeth for a party with anything substantially less than the published booking cost price range. We will negotiate with the Opeth agent on your behalf if your funding is in place. By not having funding ready then it will more difficult to book Opeth, because they get many offers to work events that are at or above asking price. It is also important to consider the travel costs when researching the Opeth booking fee, as additional expenses like this, as well as an entourage of staff and equipment, are not necessarily built-in to the booking fee range shown. If your budget does not factor that in, then there is no benefit for them to want to be hired. We do not personally speak for Opeth, but in our experience in booking talent for over 25 years, this is generally the outcome of inadequate funding.
