Independent label Criminal Records have partnered with UK’s leading entertainment guide Ents24 to bring all female rock band The Kut, to a new audience of 1.5 million music fans across the UK. The upcoming Love Hate Vampire Shotgun System Circus Tour has been eagerly anticipated following the bands recent sold out Garage show and it is anticipated that many shows on the tour will be sold out. The partnership marks another milestone in the growing number of deals between UK Record Labels and concert promoters such as Live Nation, who are now also known for striking long term deals with acts including U2 and Madonna.
Adele Taylor, at Ents24 spoke of the partnership in a press conference today, stating “I’m delighted that Ents24 are supporting The Kut tour and it’s great to be working with Criminal Records in bringing acts like this to the fore. Having significant involvement in a band or artist’s career just as it’s all taking off is something you can’t beat! Ents24 have always strived to bring new talent to our ever growing audience, which is something I hope we’ll continue to do for a very long time to come.”
This is brilliant news for The Kut, who’s ‘Closure’ music video comes out next week. The girls are also due to return to LA later this year after hooking up with multiplatinum producer and celebrity, Kim Fowley, first known as the manager of The Runaways. In a brief meeting Kim told Paul at ROTD, “The best thing to come out of the UK is K-U-T, The Kut!” The LA trip will also double up a showcase to celebrate the band’s deal to feature in the game Rock Band alongside a handful of other female artists including Gwen Stefani, Metric and The Donnas.
