Gang Of Youths Confirm Signing With Sony

Gang Of Youths have today formalised their partnership with Sony Music Entertainment through their own Mosy Recordings label as they relocate to America.

The Sydney band have been one of the buzz names of the last few months, largely thanks to their first single Evangelists and it has been widely known recently that the band had been signed to the major label.

At the ARIA Week Masterclass Sony boss Denis Handlin named them as one of the label's key artists acquisitions moving forward in to 2014.

As well as Sony, the band have struck booking deals with Artist Voice in Australia and New Zealand and CAA for America, the UK and Europe.

The band are currently recording their debut album in New York with Kevin McMahon, before returning to Australia for support slots with Vampire Weekend and Frightened Rabbit. Following those jaunts the band will spend time touring the US and UK before the album drops in September.

They are managed by Mirror Music Group's Kurt Bailey, who plays in Tigertown.

In conjunction with today's official confirmation, the band have posted Evangelists online:
