Brisbane Duo The Furrs Sign American Booking Deal

Brisbane-based pop-rock The Furrs have penned a deal with American booking agency High Road Touring.

The pairing of Gabriella Cohen and Jim Griffin will be represented by High Road's Matt Hickey, after he witnessed their performance at BIGSOUND in September.

"After watching The Furrs play just their second song, I knew the band was special, and someone I had to work with," Hickey said of the duo.

"Cannot wait for the rest of the world to find out about them."

Hickey also looks after the bookings for artists such as current Aus tourists Portugal. The Man, Bluesfest-bound Alabama Shakes and indie-rock faves Bloc Party.

It's been a busy 12 month for the outfit already, performing alongside the likes of Cults, DMA's and Holy Holy as well as dishing out some new material, including their latest track 66. The Furrs will release a new EP sometime in 2015 so stay tuned for that.

The Furrs are managed locally by Kurt Bailey at Mirror Group.
