The band will also support Kingswood on their 'Microscopic Wars II' sojourn

After a chock-full 2014 that saw Damian Costin's 123 Agency ink deals with a slew of artists including The Delta Riggs, Timberwolf, Food Court, Bec Laughton, The Kite Machine, and more, the renowned booking company has kicked off the new year with force by signing Brisbane-bred five-piece The Belligerents.

The new deal comes just ahead of the band's forthcoming headline tour in Queensland and NSW later this month and early next, in support or recently released (and triple j favourite) single In My Way. The handful of shows in honour of the release will kick off at Maroochydore's Sol Bar on Friday, 30 January, and take in February performances at Bondi Beach's Beach Road Hotel, the Black Bear Lodge, in Brisbane, and Byron Bay's Great Northern.

The shows will provide the quintet with ample opportunity to further polish their live set before taking to the stage again in March as supports for the metropolitan leg of Kingswood's Microscopic Wars II tour through Melbourne, Sydney, Adelaide and Brisbane.
