Uly Booking Agency Profile
Rising funkster Uly (real name Rafino Murphy), the stylistic offspring of Sly Stone, Bootsy Collins and Maxwell, references the progressive soul music of the '70s fusion mavericks and their '90s neo-soul kids. Soft guitar licks, soulful trumpet playing, basslines turned way up, dry and harsh snare drum hits and a falsetto that would make D'Angelo's heart quiver are all part of his retro vision. The retro sound of these silky tracks gives the impression of applying a grainy, desaturated Instagram filter to your range of view.
The Dublin-based Irish-Filipino singer and multi-instrumentalist has gained notoriety after appearing in the well-liked television versions of the two Sally Rooney novels Normal People and Conversations With Friends.
The additional attention comes in the wake of his involvement with the alt-jazz group INNRSPACE, tight associations with the rapper Nealo and a string of brief solo albums, including the EP if you were a day, you'd be sunday (music to go walking to), as well as a number of singles and loosies. His most recent release, 1822.demos, has a name that conjures up something unfinished, like a collection of unappreciated WAV files on his desktop. But with 12 tracks, this is Uly's longest and most thorough record to date, offering a more comprehensive view of his R&B chemistry..

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