Hire Styx for your festival or concert plans!

In 1980, Styx was voted the most popular band in America, according to a Gallup poll.

Styx's commercial breakthrough in North America came with The Grand Illusion (1977), which peaked at No. 6 in both the US and Canada, and became the first of four straight multi-platinum albums in the US for Styx. It featured the single "Come Sail Away", a top 10 hit in both countries.

Styx had eight songs that hit the top 10 on the US Billboard Hot 100, as well as 16 top 40 singles. Seven of their eight top 10 singles were written and sung by founding member and lead singer Dennis DeYoung, who has not been part of the band since 1999.

In 2001, Styx performed at the Super Bowl XXXV pre-game show at Raymond James Stadium.

In 2003, Styx performed at the Super Bowl XXXVII pre-game show at Qualcomm Stadium.

In 2003, "Cyclorama" is released, which included guest appearances by Billy Bob Thornton, Brian Wilson, John Waite, Jude Cole and Tenacious D.

In 2004, Styx is invited to perform at Eric Clapton's Crossroads Guitar Festival in Dallas in June. Since they had just played there three weeks previously, they decide to perform their version of the Beatles classic "I Am the Walrus," which keyboardist Lawrence Gowan had only performed in sound checks.

In a North American tour beginning in May 2010, Styx was a co-headliner of United in Rock with Foreigner and special guests Kansas.

In early April 2011, it was announced that Styx would join up with Yes for a "Progressive US Tour" that began on July 4, 2011.

On November 22, 2013, they announced a benefit concert with REO Speedwagon titled "Rock to the Rescue" to raise money for the affected families of the tornado in central Illinois.

The summer of 2014 found the band back on the road in a new touring package called Soundtrack of Summer, with Foreigner and ex-Eagle Don Felder.

Styx's 2015 summer tour saw them re-uniting with Def Leppard. Along with Tesla, the groups played outdoor venues across the United States.

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