Light and Torch Booking Agency Profile
Light the Torch is an American supergroup of metalcore veterans, previously known as Devil You Know. They got their start a decade ago, in 2012, in their native Los Angeles and went on to sign to Nuclear Blast Records. So far, they have two albums under their belt: “The Beauty of Destruction” from 2014 and “They Bleed Red” from 2015, both albums released under the name Devil You Know before switching over to their new name. As Light the Torch, they released 2018’s “Revival” and most recently “You Will Be the Death of Me” in 2021. Their songs “Calm Before the Storm” and the most recent “Wilting in the Light” were chart toppers and were both released under their new name. Current members include Francesco Artusato on lead guitar and rhythm guitar, Howard Jones (lead singer of Killswitch Engage and Blood Has Been Shed) on lead vocals, Ryan Wombacher on bass and backing vocals, and Alex Rüdinger on drums. Previously, John Sankey of the band Devolved was the drummer. It was John leaving the band that triggered the name change from Devil You Know to Light the Torch, apparently for legal reasons. The band went on to win the Metal Hammer Golden Gods Award for Best New Band..

Frequently Asked Questions about booking Light and Torch to perform.
Many performers, actors, speakers and other talent like Light and Torch in certain cases will consider virtual appearances via live streaming. They perhaps may accept lower fees too.

Light and Torch'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 Light and Torch for your party.

CTI can give you the accurate Light and Torch booking price once we submit your event details to their camp. "How much does it cost to book Light and Torch for an event?" is a frequent question we get. The final Light and Torch 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 Light and Torch charge for an event. An example fee to book Light and Torch 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 Light and Torch agent or help distribute fan mail, personal messages, gifts, requests for free appearances, or donations of time. The Light and Torch 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 Light and Torch for a party with anything substantially less than the published booking cost price range. We will negotiate with the Light and Torch agent on your behalf if your funding is in place. By not having funding ready then it will more difficult to book Light and Torch, 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 Light and Torch 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 Light and Torch, but in our experience in booking talent for over 25 years, this is generally the outcome of inadequate funding.
