Bio

Code Orange, originally known as Code Orange Kids, is an American metalcore band that started in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, in 2008, when its members were still in high school. The current lineup features vocalist Jami Morgan, guitarist and vocalist Reba Meyers, Eric "Shade" Balderose, who plays keyboard, guitar, and provides vocals while also being a visual artist, bassist Joe Goldman, guitarist Dominic Landolina, and drummer Max Portnoy. From March 2020 until October 2021, their touring lineup included drummer Ethan Young, known for his work with Thirty Nights of Violence. After that, Portnoy took over as the touring drummer until he officially joined the band in 2023.

Initially, the band signed with Deathwish Inc. and released their first two studio albums: Love Is Love/Return to Dust in November 2012 under their original name, and I Am King in September 2014. Their third album, Forever, came out in January 2017 through Roadrunner Records, followed by their fourth album, Underneath, released in March 2020, also on Roadrunner Records. The most recent album, The Above, was released on September 29, 2023. In addition to their albums, the band has put out three EPs, one live album, thirteen music videos, three live DVDs, and six other shorter projects, including splits and singles.

Code Orange began as a hardcore punk band, and with their debut full-length album, Love Is Love/Return to Dust, they started to transition into metalcore. Over the years, they have broadened their sound, especially in albums like Forever and Underneath, incorporating influences from grunge, nu metal, electronica, and industrial music. The band has earned recognition, winning a Kerrang! Award for Best International Breakthrough in 2018, and receiving Grammy nominations for Best Metal Performance in both 2017 and 2020. They were also nominated for the Loudwire Music Awards for Metal Album of the Year and Metal Artist of the Year in 2017, and they received two nominations from the Metal Hammer Golden Gods Awards for Breakthrough Artist in 2017 and 2018, claiming the award in 2018. In 2012, Meyers, Morgan, Goldman, and Landolina formed another rock group called Adventures, which remained active until 2016.

Frequently Asked Questions

    Will I need security for my event if I hire a celebrity?

    Yes, the celebrity may require you to hire unarmed police or private esecurity. It depends on the status of the chosen celebrity and the type of event. The artist needs protection and everyone’s reputation is in jeopardy if they are not reasonably protected. Sometimes the celebrity will bring their own bodyguard.

    Will I have to pay for the celebrity’s hotel, travel and food?

    Most of the time the celebrity will expect general food and beverage accommodations for the duration of the event. In more complex bookings, they may want to be fed from the day of arrival to the day of departure. Additionally, hotels and transportation should be provided unless a buyout is included in the offer being submitted before you book a celebrity.

    Will I get my money back after I have hired a celebrity and my event is canceled?

    If your event is canceled sometimes you can receive a refund or a credit toward future or rescheduled performance in the event of a force majeure. Other times the contract has strict cancellation terms that must be adhered to. We help you outline the cancellation terms in the negotiating process. 

    Can I hire a celebrity for an event myself?

    Anyone can hire a celebrity. You will pay more in most cases because an artist can tell if you are not familiar with the process. Always consult with a professional before you book a celebrity yourself. There is a specific process that should be followed.

    Will a celebrity prepare a speech or promote my product at the event?

    The short answer is yes. The celebrity will help promote your product and deliver a speech if that is included in the deal points when we submit the offer. A celebrity may also post the product on their social media. 

    What happens if a celebrity is late to my event?

    Sometimes flights are delayed, it’s the unfortunate part of traveling abroad. As part of the contract process, we help eliminate delays by adding a late-arrival clause that allows you to cancel the performance if an artist is late beyond a certain point. It’s not ideal and it is rarely a concern, but the good news is that you will get your deposit back and you will not be liable for the performer’s final payment.

    Can I pick which songs the celebrity performs at my event?

    You can certainly create a list of songs you want performed. The celebrity will sing or perform all of the chosen songs or as many as reasonably possibly within the appearance time paid for.

    Will a celebrity sing and perform at my private or public event?

    Absolutely, there are some requirements to be aware of if you want a musical performance, however. A celebrity may ask you to fulfill parts of their tour rider, which outlines specific types of equipment needed to execute a live performance.

    Are there any celebrities I cannot hire for my event?

    It depends, some celebrities will avoid certain political affiliations, communities or parties that may be considered a conflict of interest. We will help you determine the potential obstacles before wasting any time.

    Will the celebrity I choose take pictures with my family and friends?

    Yes, the celebrity will take pictures with you and a small group of people assuming you make time for it during their appearance. If you want a celebrity to appear for an hour, set aside 30 minutes of that time for a meet and greet, otherwise the celebrity may not stick around for longer than what’s stated in their contract.

    How much does it cost to hire a celebrity for an event?

    The cost to hire a celebrity can vary from artist to artist. Other determining factors will influence the price as well. The deal points we create on your behalf , the location of your event, and duration of appearance can heavily influence the price of a celebrity booking.

    Can you guarantee the celebrity will be hired for my event?

    In most cases, if the celebrity is available and the offer is strong, we guarantee the chosen celebrity will strongly consider the offer. Sometimes, it makes sense to have a backup plan, however, schedules change and late bookings can be risky. It’s best to have 2-3 celebrities in mind before you start the process, just in case the first is unavailable. 

    When will I have to pay the celebrity to appear at my private or public event?

    Typically an artist will be paid in two separate installments. The first payment is a deposit of 50% which is usually paid thirty to ninety days from the engagement. Sometimes the artist will require a full payment upfront, it depends on the scope of work and the notoriety of the celebrity being considered. The final payment of 50% is paid on the day of the event, unless there is a ticket reconciliation that needs to occur.

    Will the celebrity sign autographs for my team and client?

    Yes, of course. We include signed memorabilia in all of our offers (memorabilia to be provided by the venue or client).

    How long does it take to hire a celebrity for a private or public ticket event?

    It can take as much as three to four months to confirm a celebrity appearance, or two days depending on the deal points, offer and location  of your event. Start the process early – that’s our recommendation. 

    What is the process for hiring a celebrity for a private or ticket event?

    The process includes selecting the artist(s), contacting our agency, then creating deal points to include in an offer sheet. Once you have the details outlined, we can discuss the terms with the artist or manager. After the artist agrees to the deal points, a contract is signed, a deposit is made and the performance will happen before the remaining money is paid to the artist.
