TOPS Booking Agency Profile
A well-known character in the Canadian independent music scene, TOPS has developed a devoted fan base within the Arbutus Records scene. Tender Opposites, the band's debut album, was widely praised when it was released in 2012. Gorilla vs. Bear ranked the album as the seventh best album of 2012. Picture You Staring, their second studio album, included illustrations by LA-based artist Jessica Dean Harrison and was published in 2014 on Arbutus Records.
Penny's calming vocals, Carriere's catchy guitar riffs, and the band's atmospheric and dreamy sound define TOPS' music. As a fusion of indie rock, dream pop, and electronic music with influences ranging from Fleetwood Mac to Prince, their music has been dubbed.
The group's third studio album, Sugar at the Gate, which was released in 2017, had a more polished sound and demonstrated the group's progress as musicians. They released I Feel Alive, their fourth studio album, on their own label, Musique TOPS, in 2020. The band's status as one of Canada's most intriguing indie rock bands was cemented by the album, which received positive reviews from critics.
Overall, TOPS' music is a tribute to the group's capacity to produce timeless and modern music as well as their commitment to expanding the parameters of indie rock. In the years to come, TOPS are a band who will be worth keeping an eye on thanks to their enthralling live shows and excellent record..

Frequently Asked Questions about booking TOPS to perform.
Many performers, actors, speakers and other talent like TOPS in certain cases will consider virtual appearances via live streaming. They perhaps may accept lower fees too. If you are seriously interested in booking TOPS or other talent shown on our site, we will research their desire and the specific fee for your live-streaming event or project request.
TOPS'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 TOPS for your party. As long as your funding is commensurate with the price range to book TOPS, CTI will propose your event to the official agency representing TOPS. 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 TOPS booking price once we submit your event details to their camp. "How much does it cost to book TOPS for an event?" is a frequent question we get. The final TOPS 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 TOPS charge for an event. An example fee to book TOPS is in the starting range of $2,500-$7,499. 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 TOPS agent or help distribute fan mail, personal messages, gifts, requests for free appearances, or donations of time. The TOPS 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 TOPS for a party with anything substantially less than the published booking cost price range. We will negotiate with the TOPS agent on your behalf if your funding is in place. By not having funding ready then it will more difficult to book TOPS, 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 TOPS 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 TOPS, but in our experience in booking talent for over 25 years, this is generally the outcome of inadequate funding.
