Hire The Roots:
GRAMMY award-winning The Roots are an American hip-hop band formed in 1987 by Tariq “Black Thought” Trotter and Ahmir “Questlove“. They are known for a jazzy and eclectic approach to hip-hop featuring live musical instruments. The group’s work has consistently been met with critical acclaim.
ThoughtCo ranked the band #7 on its list of the 25 Best Hip-Hop Groups of All-Time, calling them “Hip-hop’s first legitimate band.” The band’s sound is heavily influenced by the Wu-Tang Clan and the RZA‘s grimy and haunting production style, replete with samples from old jazz and classical music.
Hire The Roots for your festival or concert plans.
In 2004, The Roots were featured on the album, True Love, by Toots and the Maytals, which won the Grammy Award for Best Reggae Album and showcased many notable musicians, including Eric Clapton, Trey Anastasio, No Doubt, Ben Harper, Manu Chao and Ryan Adams.
In 2007, The Roots performed at Lollapalooza along with others, including Cage the Elephant, Cold War Kids, Interpol, Lady Gaga, Muse, Patti Smith, Regina Spektor, Snow Patrol and Stephen Marley.
Between 2009 and 2014, they served as the house band on NBC’s The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, having served in the same role on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon from 2009 to 2014.

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO BOOK/HIRE THE ROOTS?
(i.e., what is the booking fee to hire THE ROOTS for an event?)
(i.e., what is THE ROOTS booking fee to perform at an event?)
Official booking fees for THE ROOTS, or any other celebrity, are determined based on a number of factors and may change at any time without prior notice.
Factors influencing pricing vary and may include date, location, type of event, whether a private party or a public concert, the artist’s calendar, whether the artist is on tour or not, how well tickets are selling at the artist’s concerts, the current demand for the artist’s music, market activity, etc.
As you might expect, the more in-demand the artist is, the more buyers are prepared to pay. Of course, this causes the artist’s price to increase as the artist becomes more popular or decrease when the artist becomes less popular.
Exclusive agents with exclusive representation frequently quote a range instead of a specific price, since changes can occur at any time. Generally, the artist’s manager has a role in the decision to accept any particular offer from a talent buyer.
