Although less frequently requested, the following might be considered, also.
- A non-performance personal appearance.
An example would be to hire a celebrity to attend a private or corporate party as simply a (non-performing) guest to mingle with other guests, or to hire the celebrity to do a meet-and-greet at your party.
- A virtual performance.
A virtual performance is a live or recorded show—such as a concert, play, dance, comedy act, or other artistic presentation—that is broadcast or streamed online instead of being performed in front of a physical audience. Artists perform live from a studio, venue, or even their homes and stream the show on platforms like YouTube, Twitch, or Instagram Live. Essentially, a virtual performance brings entertainment to audiences through the internet rather than in-person venues.

Who Are The Amity Affliction?
The Amity Affliction is an Australian metalcore band known for blending crushing breakdowns with emotionally raw lyrics centered on mental health, depression, and personal struggle. Formed in 2003, the band has become one of the most recognizable names in modern heavy music, earning a devoted global fanbase through honesty, intensity, and relentless touring.
Formation and Early Years
The band formed in Gympie, Queensland, originally starting as a group of friends influenced by hardcore punk and melodic metal. Early lineups shifted frequently, but the core vision remained the same: aggressive music paired with deeply personal storytelling. Their early EPs and independent releases helped them build momentum within Australia’s underground heavy scene.
Breakthrough and Rising Popularity
The Amity Affliction gained major traction with their debut album Severed Ties (2008), which showcased their signature mix of melodic choruses and heavy breakdowns. Subsequent releases like Youngbloods (2010) and Chasing Ghosts (2012) elevated the band to international attention, charting strongly in Australia and introducing them to audiences worldwide.
Lyrical Themes and Musical Style
A defining trait of The Amity Affliction is their lyrical vulnerability. Frontman Joel Birch has been open about struggles with mental health, addiction, and self-destruction, themes that resonate strongly with fans. Musically, the band balances screamed verses, clean vocal hooks, atmospheric interludes, and punishing metalcore riffs, creating a sound that is both emotionally accessible and sonically aggressive.
Commercial Success and Chart Achievements
Over the years, The Amity Affliction has achieved multiple top-charting albums in Australia, including Let the Ocean Take Me (2014), This Could Be Heartbreak (2016), and Everyone Loves You… Once You Leave Them (2020). Their ability to consistently chart reflects both their loyal fanbase and their staying power in a constantly evolving heavy music landscape.
Touring and Global Reach
The band is renowned for their high-energy live performances and relentless touring schedule. They have headlined international tours and appeared at major music festivals across North America, Europe, and Australia, sharing stages with some of the biggest names in metalcore and post-hardcore.
Evolution and Recent Work
Despite lineup changes and shifting trends in heavy music, The Amity Affliction has continued to evolve while staying true to their emotional core. Later releases experiment with darker atmospheres, modern production techniques, and heavier sonic elements, reinforcing their relevance in the contemporary metal scene.
Legacy and Influence
Today, The Amity Affliction stands as one of Australia’s most influential metalcore exports. Their willingness to confront difficult topics head-on has helped normalize conversations around mental health within the heavy music community. With a career spanning over two decades, the band’s impact continues to be felt by fans and emerging artists alike.

- Pittsburgh
- Don’t Lean on Me
