The Residents Booking Agency Profile

Book The Residents for your next corporate event, function, or private party.
The Residents are an avant-garde art rock band from the United States with a history spanning more than five decades. With the release of their debut album Meet the Residents in 1974, they first came to the public's attention. Since then, they have published more than 60 albums, a large number of music videos and short films, three CD-ROM projects, and 10 DVDs. Also, they have completed seven significant world tours and scored several movies.

The group is renowned for its groundbreaking work in multimedia projects, including CD-ROM technology, in addition to their music. For their multimedia work, they have received numerous honors, and in 1972, they started their own record label, Ralph Records, which specialized in avant-garde music.

The Residents' demand for anonymity is one of their distinguishing traits. They have always tried to keep their art the center of attention rather than their own identities, which has generated a lot of rumors and speculation over time. When the gang does make an appearance in public, they frequently dress in the eyeball helmets, top hats, and tails that have come to symbolize them.

Long believed to be a member of The Residents, Hardy Fox revealed in 2017 that he was actually a co-founder and chief songwriter of the group. Fox passed away in 2018, yet his avant-garde music and multimedia creations live on and continue to inspire and have an impact on artists all over the world. Despite the loss of one of their original members, The Residents continue to push the boundaries of music and art by producing new and original works..

The final The Residents 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 Residents charge for an event. An example fee to book The Residents 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 Residents agent or help distribute fan mail, personal messages, gifts, requests for free appearances, or donations of time. The The Residents 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 Residents for a party with anything substantially less than the published booking cost price range. We will negotiate with the The Residents agent on your behalf if your funding is in place. By not having funding ready then it will more difficult to book The Residents, 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 Residents 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 Residents, but in our experience in booking talent for over 25 years, this is generally the outcome of inadequate funding.
