Placebo are a British rock band, formed in London in 1994 by
vocalist–guitarist Brian Molko and bassist–guitarist Stefan Olsdal. Drummer
Robert Schultzberg joined in late 1994, but left in 1996 shortly after the
release of the band's eponymous debut album due to conflicts with Molko, and was
replaced the same year by Steve Hewitt.
Following the release of a demo, a split single, and their eponymous debut
album, Placebo gained exposure in 1997 after the single "Nancy Boy"
became popular in the UK, a song notorious at the time for its gender-bending
content. The band stood out amongst the Britpop scene they were associated with
at the time for their androgynous appearance and musical content, and lyrics
which openly discussed sexuality, mental health, and drug use.

Placebo have collaborated with various artists over the years, including
David Bowie, Justin Warfield, Michael Stipe and Alison Mosshart. To date,
Placebo have released eight studio albums, all of which have reached the Top
20 in the United Kingdom, and have sold around 11 million records worldwide.
Placebo's music has typically been labeled as alternative rock. They
have, however, also incorporated different sounds in their music throughout
their career. Critics have also described the band's sound as pop punk,
industrial rock, Britpop, glam rock, gothic rock, electronic rock, post-punk
revival, and experimental rock. Progressive rock elements in the band's earlier
works along with grunge and punk rock influences were also noted.
Placebo's influences include David Bowie, Can,
Iggy Pop and the
Stooges, Sonic Youth, The
Cure, Pixies,
Nirvana, The Smiths, PJ Harvey,
Depeche Mode and
Nine Inch Nails.
Placebo have been cited as an influence on such bands as
My Chemical
Romance and
Panic! at the
Disco.
Lyrically, Placebo's music contains many references to drugs and
sexuality.

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

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
