Placebo Booking Agency Profile

Book Placebo for your next corporate event, function, or private party.
When Placebo made its debut in the 1990s, when grunge was going out of style and Brit-pop was ruling the charts, they created a stir with their androgynous image and brutal attack. The international group, often compared to a glam Nirvana, provided a powerful mix of gothic and electronic elements mixed with dark alt-rock, giving them a sound more akin to Smashing Pumpkins, Depeche Mode, Muse and Silversun Pickups. With their debut success, "Nancy Boy" from Placebo, the then-trio stunned the British music market and offered a sharp contrast to the boy culture of Brit-pop.
The band enjoyed a brief period in the spotlight in the US while they continued to broaden their European fan base. They scored moderate radio singles with "Pure Morning" from Without You I'm Nothing, "Special K" from Black Market Music, and "Infra-Red" from Meds. They only put out one official album that decade, Loud Like Love, but despite this, they managed to hold on to their core fan base by releasing an MTV Unplugged session and a number of compilation albums featuring B-sides from all of their albums to date. Placebo returned with their eighth album, Never Let Me Go, over ten years after their last album was released..

Frequently Asked Questions about booking Placebo to perform.

Many performers, actors, speakers and other talent like Placebo in certain cases will consider virtual appearances via live streaming. They perhaps may accept lower fees too. If you are seriously interested in booking Placebo or other talent shown on our site, we will research their desire and the specific fee for your live-streaming event or project request.
Placebo'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 Placebo for your party. As long as your funding is commensurate with the price range to book Placebo, CTI will propose your event to the official agency representing Placebo. 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 Placebo booking price once we submit your event details to their camp. "How much does it cost to book Placebo for an event?" is a frequent question we get. The final Placebo 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 Placebo charge for an event. An example fee to book Placebo is in the starting range of $25,000-$39,999. 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 Placebo agent or help distribute fan mail, personal messages, gifts, requests for free appearances, or donations of time. The Placebo 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 Placebo for a party with anything substantially less than the published booking cost price range. We will negotiate with the Placebo agent on your behalf if your funding is in place. By not having funding ready then it will more difficult to book Placebo, 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 Placebo 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 Placebo, but in our experience in booking talent for over 25 years, this is generally the outcome of inadequate funding.
