Soft Play Booking Agency Profile

Book Soft Play for your next corporate event, function, or private party.
In their early twenties, Laurie Vincent, the guitarist, and Isaac Holman, the drummer, founded the raw punk duo Slaves in the lush Kent town of Maidstone. Holman temporarily joined Vincent's band Bareface when they met on the concert circuit, but the two ultimately made the decision to separate ways and pursue other endeavors. Playing only one electric guitar and relying on a simple drum kit consisting of a floor tom, a snare drum, and two cymbals (which Holman played standing up), the two took turns singing, creating a distinctively British sound that was harsh, vicious, cathartic, and influenced by a variety of artists, including Joy Division, Crass, and Refused, as well as more contemporary acts like Gallows and Iceage.
Since they were eager to play as many shows as they could, the pair's popularity grew rapidly. The band, dressed like hipsters, astonished and amazed crowds with their harsh sound onslaught and sweaty performances, which typically concluded with one or both of them naked to the waist and the audience erupting in wild applause. Making the most of their increasing fame, the two came back the next year with Take Control, another full-length album that included Beastie Boys member Mike D. They toured Europe and the United States to promote the project..

Frequently Asked Questions about booking Soft Play to perform.

Many performers, actors, speakers and other talent like Soft Play in certain cases will consider virtual appearances via live streaming. They perhaps may accept lower fees too. If you are seriously interested in booking Soft Play or other talent shown on our site, we will research their desire and the specific fee for your live-streaming event or project request.
Soft Play'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 Soft Play for your party. As long as your funding is commensurate with the price range to book Soft Play, CTI will propose your event to the official agency representing Soft Play. 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 Soft Play booking price once we submit your event details to their camp. "How much does it cost to book Soft Play for an event?" is a frequent question we get. The final Soft Play 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 Soft Play charge for an event. An example fee to book Soft Play is in the starting range of $40,000-$74,999. 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 Soft Play agent or help distribute fan mail, personal messages, gifts, requests for free appearances, or donations of time. The Soft Play 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 Soft Play for a party with anything substantially less than the published booking cost price range. We will negotiate with the Soft Play agent on your behalf if your funding is in place. By not having funding ready then it will more difficult to book Soft Play, 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 Soft Play 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 Soft Play, but in our experience in booking talent for over 25 years, this is generally the outcome of inadequate funding.
