Publishing company Blue Raincoat Songs has signed Manchester-born band Cabbage to a worldwide publishing deal.
The five-piece are on the roster at Infectious Records and have so far self-released four EPs, making up their compilation EP, Young, Dumb and Full Of...
Their sonic worldview mixes political disdain and anger with razor-sharp wit and charm. Speaking to M last year, they note their biggest inspiration is 'the sound of a fork on a plate' and 'the inevitable fall of capitalism'.
Blue Raincoat Songs chief executive Jeremy Lascelles said: 'Cabbage are the most exciting new band to have come out of this country in a long, long time.
'They write lyrics that are political, angry, aggressive but also extremely witty and insightful. On top of all that, they are a fucking great band. Boy, do we need a band like them in these dark and dangerous times.'
Lascelles founded Blue Raincoat Songs alongside industry heavyweight, producer Robin Millar, with the backing of Chris Wright and former Virgin Entertainment Chairman Robert Devereux.
