Bio
Fleetwood Mac, the British-American rock band, came together in London in 1967 under the guidance of guitarist and vocalist Peter Green. Green brought on board drummer Mick Fleetwood, guitarist and singer Jeremy Spencer, and bassist Bob Brunning, although Brunning was soon replaced by John McVie just weeks after the group made their first public debut at the National Jazz & Blues Festival in Windsor that same year. In 1968, guitarist and singer Danny Kirwan joined the lineup. Christine Perfect, who initially worked with the band as a session musician, married McVie and officially became part of Fleetwood Mac in July 1970, just two months after Green's departure, adopting the name Christine McVie.
In their early days, the band primarily played British blues and celebrated success with the instrumental track "Albatross," which hit number one on the UK charts in 1968. They followed this up with other notable hits like "Man of the World," "Oh Well," both from 1969, and "The Green Manalishi (With the Two Prong Crown)" in 1970. However, after Green left, Spencer and Kirwan also exited in 1971 and 1972, respectively. Bob Welch came in to replace Spencer, while Bob Weston and Dave Walker took over for Kirwan. By late 1974, Weston and Walker had been let go, and Welch had departed as well, leaving the band without a guitarist or male vocalist.
While searching for studios in Los Angeles, Fleetwood discovered the folk-rock duo Buckingham Nicks, which featured guitarist and singer Lindsey Buckingham alongside singer Stevie Nicks. In December 1974, Fleetwood invited Buckingham to join the band, and Buckingham agreed on the condition that Nicks be included as well. Their arrival shifted Fleetwood Mac's sound toward pop rock, leading to the release of their self-titled album in 1975, which topped the Billboard 200 chart in the U.S. The subsequent album, Rumours, released in 1977, produced four Top 10 singles in the U.S. and held the number one position on the Billboard 200 for an impressive 31 weeks. The album achieved global acclaim and earned the Grammy Award for Album of the Year in 1978, selling over 40 million copies worldwide and solidifying its place as one of the best-selling albums ever. Despite personal breakups among the members—John and Christine McVie, Buckingham and Nicks, and Fleetwood and his wife Jenny Boyd—they managed to collaborate on the album.
The band maintained a stable lineup through three more studio albums, but by the late 1980s, tensions began to surface. After Buckingham's departure in 1987, he was succeeded by Billy Burnette and Rick Vito, though Vito left in 1991, along with Nicks. A brief reunion of the classic lineup occurred during a special performance for President Bill Clinton's first inauguration in 1993, marking their first gathering in six years. A full reunion followed four years later, leading to the release of their live album The Dance in 1997, which celebrated the 20th anniversary of Rumours and the band's 30th anniversary. Christine McVie left the group in 1998 after the tour for The Dance. Fleetwood Mac released their final studio album, Say You Will, in 2003. Christine McVie rejoined the band in 2014 for their On With the Show Tour, but in 2018, Buckingham was let go and replaced by Mike Campbell, who had previously played with Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, and Neil Finn from Split Enz and Crowded House. Following Christine McVie's passing in 2022, Nicks announced in 2024 that the band would not continue without her.
Throughout their career, Fleetwood Mac has sold over 120 million records globally, securing their status as one of the best-selling bands in history. They received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 1979 and were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1998, also earning the Brit Award for Outstanding Contribution to Music. In 2018, the Recording Academy honored Fleetwood Mac with the MusiCares Person of the Year award, recognizing their artistic contributions to the music world and their commitment to philanthropy.

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.
