The Hics Booking Agency Profile

Book The Hics for your next corporate event, function, or private party.
Sam Paul Evans and Jacob Welsh founded the electronic band The Hics in 2012 in London, UK. The Hics began as a two-piece electronic indie band before adding bassist Matt Knox, singer Roxane Barker, guitarist Geordan Reid-Campbell, and saxophonist David Turay. They joined with REAL STAR RECORDS in late 2012, and in 2013, they released Tangle, their debut EP.

The band members first became friends while taking the music program at Pimlico School, which is now Pimlico Academy. They initially started the band as a pair, but after noticing a gap in their lineup, they invited their former classmates Rox Barker and Geordan Reid-Campbell to play guitar and vocals, respectively. David Turay, a saxophonist, joined the group after getting to know the others through the jazz community. The wood from which some drumsticks are fashioned, hickory, gave the band its name.

On September 30, 2012, they released their debut single, "Lines," which was picked up by Gilles Peterson of BBC Radio 6 Music. In February 2013, "Cold Air," the group's second single, made its debut on Gilles Peterson's BBC Radio 6 Music program. The Hics were promoted by REAL STAR RECORDS before being mentioned in NME magazine in March 2013. As a teaser for their next EP, which was released the following month, they released the song "Tangle" in July 2013. After receiving positive reviews for the EP, the band headlined a sold-out event in London in August 2013.

Grand Theft Auto V and other video games have both used music from The Hics. The Hics have developed a devoted fan following thanks to their distinctive sound and exciting live performances, and they continue to create music that pushes the frontiers of electronic music..

Frequently Asked Questions about booking The Hics to perform.

Many performers, actors, speakers and other talent like The Hics in certain cases will consider virtual appearances via live streaming. They perhaps may accept lower fees too. If you are seriously interested in booking The Hics or other talent shown on our site, we will research their desire and the specific fee for your live-streaming event or project request.
The Hics'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 The Hics for your party. As long as your funding is commensurate with the price range to book The Hics, CTI will propose your event to the official agency representing The Hics. 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 The Hics booking price once we submit your event details to their camp. "How much does it cost to book The Hics for an event?" is a frequent question we get. The final The Hics 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 The Hics charge for an event. An example fee to book The Hics 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 The Hics agent or help distribute fan mail, personal messages, gifts, requests for free appearances, or donations of time. The The Hics 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 The Hics for a party with anything substantially less than the published booking cost price range. We will negotiate with the The Hics agent on your behalf if your funding is in place. By not having funding ready then it will more difficult to book The Hics, 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 The Hics 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 The Hics, but in our experience in booking talent for over 25 years, this is generally the outcome of inadequate funding.
