Stalwart Brisbane-bred alt-prog rock outfit Caligula's Horse are well placed to hit the ground running in 2015, with the announcement coming today that they have become the latest signing to New York City-based bookers The Agency Group.

Falling under the purview of agent Josh Kline, who is also personally responsible for the likes of Bring Me The Horizon, Trivium and Protest The Hero (from among The Agency Group's roster of more than 2000 artists), Caligula's Horse are riding high on the hype wave generated by their recently released, widely acclaimed debut full-length, The Tide, The Thief & River's End.

"Hey fans — I'm truly excited to be working with the guys and can't wait to help bring their brilliant riffage Stateside!" Kline said of the signing in a statement.

The lads are backing up the good Agency news with the revelation that they have also signed a management deal with Melbourne-based company Wild Thing Presents, who already look after their bookings on Australian shores.
