Lightning Seeds Booking Agency Profile

Book Lightning Seeds for your next corporate event, function, or private party.
Ian Broudie was a member of the band "Big in Japan" with Bill Drummond (KLF), Holly Johnson (Frankie Goes To Hollywood), Budgie (The Slits/Souxie And The Banshees) and Jayne Casey (Pink Military) when he first came to prominence in the late 1970s post punk Liverpool music scene. Before disbanding, the group founded the independent record company Zoo Records, which went on to release music by the groups Teardrop Explodes and Echo & The Bunnymen.
With a collection of personal recordings, Ian got back to writing songs. Ian sung and played every instrument on the cassettes solo, recording them in his "spare bedroom" out of necessity because he had neither a record deal nor a band in place. Eventually, the recordings had the opportunity for additional production, and a small independent record company called Ghetto ordered a few hundred copies of "Pure" through Rough Trade. Under the moniker "Lightning Seeds," the fictitious band he had imagined writing his songs for in the hopes that it would actually exist, "Pure" was made public.
Over the course of several months, "Pure" gradually began to get some attention. After hearing the renowned DJ John Peel on the radio, expert nighttime performs on local radio programs.
With the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra, Broudie recently gave a solo concert that featured a selection of his songs and some of his favorite creations. Broudie was supported by guest guitarists Sean Payne, Nick Power, Bill Ryder­Jones, Martyn Campbell and Riley Broudie. Guest vocalists James Skelly, Terry Hall, Ian McCulloch, and Miles Kane joined Broudie.
The first Lightning Seeds album in a long time is being written and recorded by him..

Frequently Asked Questions about booking Lightning Seeds to perform.

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