GRAMMY AWARD winning The National is an American rock band of
Cincinnati, Ohio natives, formed in Brooklyn, New York City, in 1999. The band
consists of Matt Berninger (vocals), twin brothers Aaron Dessner (guitar, piano,
keyboards) and Bryce Dessner (guitar, piano, keyboards), as well as brothers
Scott Devendorf (bass) and Bryan Devendorf (drums). Carin Besser is not a band
member, but has written lyrics for the band alongside her husband, Berninger,
since its 2007 album, Boxer.
Founded by Matt Berninger, Aaron Dessner, Scott Devendorf and Bryan Devendorf,
The National released their self-titled debut album, The National
(2001), on Brassland Records, an independent record label founded by Aaron and
his twin brother, Bryce Dessner. Bryce, who had assisted in recording the album,
soon joined the band, participating as a full member in the recording of its
follow-up, Sad Songs for Dirty Lovers (2003).

In 2013, The National released its sixth studio album, Trouble Will
Find Me, which was nominated for a Grammy Award. In 2017 the band released
the album, Sleep Well Beast, which won the band a Grammy Award. Their
eighth studio album, I Am Easy to Find, was released on May 17, 2019.
Four of the band's albums were included on NME's 2013 list of the NME's The 500
Greatest Albums of All Time.
Aaron and Bryce Dessner write and develop the music which Matt Berninger then
responds to, building lyrics on the music Aaron and Bryce have written. Matt has
said that the melody and the rhythm come first and then words and imagery will
start to stick to a melody, stating, "I never sit and fill a journal with
lyrics."
The National has been compared to Joy Division, Leonard Cohen,
Interpol,
Wilco,
Depeche Mode and
Nick Cave &
the Bad Seeds. The band's lyrics have been described as "dark,
melancholy and difficult to interpret."

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO BOOK/HIRE THE NATIONAL?
(i.e., what is the booking fee to hire THE NATIONAL for an event?)
(i.e., what is THE NATIONAL booking fee to perform at an event?)
Official booking fees for THE NATIONAL, or any other celebrity, are
determined based on a number of factors and may change at anytime 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 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.
To learn the most current artist's pricing, or the estimated
artist's fee for your particular event, simply click on the "Let's Get Started!" link found on this page. Then, send us your request for booking
information.
