In 1994, came the album A Moment, also on Virgin. Again, glowing reviews. Lalah Hathaway was said to be the possessor of "torchy elegance" and to have made a "solid" and "independent step" in contemporary Rhythm and Blues. She has come to the table with a group of songs that reveals an even greater maturity and a darkly original approach to production.

Hire Lalah Hathaway for your festival or concert plans.

This may be stated without danger of hyperbole: Lalah Hathaway, as the older daughter of classic soul music artist Donny and classically trained vocalist Eulaulah, is the poster child for genetic coding. Given such auspicious DNA, one is not surprised to discover her a gifted, even brilliant, singer. Not shocked in the least.

And of course, these types of assumptions are not necessarily just but, talent is expected. It is considered birthright ... the scheme of the stars ... the design of a divine hand.

Yes, Lalah Hathaway having the ability to open her mouth and liberate sheer tonal grandeur is a no-brainer. Here, however, is the revelation - that while Lalah (lay'-lah) has been imbued with and influenced by her begetters' faculties, she is, ultimately, her own artist. She is an individual voice. She seeks a singular aesthetic and pursues it arduously, painstakingly and sans compromise.

In a music business world gone bad where scores resort to sampling not merely as adornment but in an effort to disguise that aptitude and virtuosity have eluded them, Lalah Hathaway is a rarity, a welcome and refreshing one, at that. In this age when a large number of us have questioned the fate of popular music - and, more specifically, R&B - she is Noah's rainbow, the quintessential vestige of hope.

We listen to her sing, feel the nakedness of her songs, sense the verity of emotion and, for the first time in what feels like forever, we exhale. This is a woman who flies in the face of the widely embraced axiom that artfulness is doomed to always be at odds with commercial accessibility.

Hire Lalah Hathaway for your very special event or occasion.

This is an artist who manages that thing that all great artists do - to borrow from existing color only to create new pastiche. To be, at once, familiar and foreign, a most riveting combination.

Donny and Eulaulah's girl is all grown up and not within that false, oversexed oeuvre that we have been force-fed by far too many pop singers coming of age. Lalah Hathaway's work is sophisticated, emotive, sinewy. Perhaps it is her love of jazz that has imparted to her a bewitching spell common to the best of that genre, putting the thinking person in touch with his or her visceral self. It is impossible to hear Lalah and not feel.

Hire Lalah Hathaway.

Throughout her career she has collaborated with numerous artists including Mary J. Blige, Marcus Miller, Take 6, St. Victor, Nona Hendryx, Earth, Wind & Fire, Gerald Albright and Chaka Khan.

Hathaway received an honorary doctorate from Berklee College of Music in 2022.

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO BOOK/HIRE LALAH HATHAWAY?
(i.e., what is the booking fee to hire LALAH HATHAWAY for an event?)
(i.e., what is LALAH HATHAWAY booking fee to perform at an event?)

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 becoming less popular.

Exclusive agents with exclusive representation frequently quote a range instead of a specific price, since changes can occur at anytime. Generally, the artist's manager has a role in the decision to accept any particular offer from a talent buyer.
