Allison Russell Booking Agency Profile
On her ground-breaking first album Outside Child, Allison Russell—a poet, singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, activist and co-founder of Our Native Daughters with Rhiannon Giddens, Leyla McCalla and Amythyst Kiah and Birds of Chicago with JT Nero—disembowels her youth in harrowing detail. She sings about being delivered and being saved, as well as the locations, people and epiphanies that enabled her to live and win her freedom. Russell's album is "an album of power and affirmation, not victimization," according to The New York Times' description of him. Three Grammy nominations for Outside Child—best Americana album, best American roots performance and best American roots song—were received. In addition, Outside Child received nominations for the Polaris Music Prize, two Juno Awards and four Canadian Folk Music Awards.
On a Jimmy Kimmel Live episode, Russell performed her song "Nightflyer" alongside Brandi Carlile and Brittney Spencer as special guests. Russell made her Grand Ole Opry debut there and she also gave a performance at the Country Music Hall of Fame in the same year. On CBS This Morning on Saturday, she played many songs from Outside Child live, following that a performance at Hartford, Connecticut's annual Farm Aid rally.
Russell was nominated for three Grammys. She was one of numerous performers with the Black Opry, a revue that highlighted black country music musicians a month later. She and Brandi Carlile reworked "You're Not Alone," which had previously been released as a single from the Songs of Our Native Daughters album..

"How much does it cost to book Allison Russell for an event?" is a frequent question we get. The final Allison Russell 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 Allison Russell charge for an event. An example fee to book Allison Russell 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.

By not having funding ready then it will more difficult to book Allison Russell, 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 Allison Russell 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.
