Only The Poets Booking Agency Profile
The Reading four-piece, which consists of Tommy Longhurst, Andy "Roo" Burge on bass, Clem Cherry on guitar and Marcus Yates on drums, has made a name for itself as one of the largest up-and-coming live acts in the UK in just a few short years. The band, who was unsigned until recently, built their career from the bottom up, playing student house parties, pub circuits and tiny venues before selling out arenas with a 1,600-person capacity in the UK and throughout Europe.
When they were growing up in Reading and neighboring Banbury, the Reading Festival loomed over them, giving them a yearly reminder that, thanks to music, a "small town existence" wasn't the only option. As they started writing their own songs, Longhurst's visceral emotions and autobiographical lyrics merged with expansive melodies drawn from 90s British indie music quickly.
Only The Poets have announced a European tour with more affordable tickets for supporters who are struggling financially. This follows sold out tours around the UK and Europe last year. More dates have already been added in Warsaw and Prague due to the overwhelmingly high demand. The tour's finale is a headlining performance at London's Shepherds Bush Empire. The band will also serve as Lewis Capaldi's opening act on his European tour..

The final Only The Poets 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 Only The Poets charge for an event. An example fee to book Only The Poets 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.

There is low probability to book Only The Poets for a party with anything substantially less than the published booking cost price range.

By not having funding ready then it will more difficult to book Only The Poets, 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 Only The Poets 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.
