The actual deal was signed at Salford University after our Christmas lunch on the second day.
We join a contemporary roster that includes Morrissey, The Libertines, The Strokes, Spiritualized, Belle & Sebastian, Gorkys Zygotic Mynki, Babyshambles, Ikara Colt, Lou Reed, British Sea Power, Delays, Detroit Cobras.
The company owns a vast catalogue that includes classic artists such as The Kinks, Damned, Jonathan Richman & Modern Lovers, The Fall, Donovan, Undertones, ELP, Brian Auger, Black Sabbath, Small Faces, Chairman of the Board, The Nice, Sugarhill Gang, Motorhead, Humble Pie, Grandmaster Flash. The group owns the rights to many classic labels including the Immediate, Transatlantic, Trojan and Invictus labels from the 60's. Last year saw the company release the Brian Wilson 'Pet Sounds Live in London'.
The band has already begun the early stages of recording the new album, at various locations across the UK and North America. We expect to release our debut single for the label in the summer with the album later in 2005.
