The five piece from Oxford are currently recording their debut album with co-producer Tom Morris, due May 2012. The band kick off 2012 with appearances at Eurosonic and SXSW.
“We’re delighted to be signing Zulu Winter with Play It Again Sam. We have pieced together a network of first class independent labels around the band globally with PIAS, Dew Process & Hostess all now in business with them. We’re relishing the year ahead, and localised attention to detail and knowledge this team will bring to the band’s debut album campaign”
James Sandom, SuperVision Management
Musically the band have been compared to Wild Beasts, The Antlers and Foals. The band use their blog to discuss influences and are extremely literate and well-read (taking in everything from Tracey Warr and Merce Cunningham to Glenn Branca and Paradjanov – check out their mixtapes).
The band have just released their debut single with Double Denim. Early radio support has come from Zane Lowe, Steve Lamacq and Huw Stephens. XFM picked up the single for playlist and Absolute Sunday night have been spot playing the current single. Early press support from Q, The Guardian, The Fly and NME.
They’re managed by the team behind the Cribs, White Lies, Crystal Castles, Kaiser Chiefs and the Vaccines.
The band play a New to Q show at XOYO on Jan 26th.
