Losers sign to Gung-Ho!
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 6 July 2010
Losers, aka DJ, producer and radio presenter Eddy Temple-Morris and former Cooper Temple Clause man Tom Bellamy, have become the latest signing to Gung-Ho! Recordings, also home to The Japanese Popstars and Burn The Negative, amongst others. The duo will release their debut album through the label later this year.
Speaking about the signing, Temple-Morris told CMU: “Matt from Gung-Ho! doesn’t so much sign bands as enter into an extended love affair with them. To be signed to a label like that is, for me, the dream come true, and to be stablemates with The Japanese Popstars and Burn The Negative is just the icing on the best chocolate cake ever”.
Losers’ co-manager, Steve Sethlewaite of Hope Management added: “Co-managing the act with Sean Holbrook for the HDM Group, we’ve been keen to find the appropriate partners for Eddy and Tom’s album. The passion Gung-Ho! has shown for the music rather than the guys’ related histories was hugely refreshing. Culturally Losers sit well on Gung-Ho! And it’s maximised by the fact that everyone involved is ultra keen and excited to be working together”.
Losers have various live dates coming up, including appearances at the Latitude and Lovebox festivals. Their first single for the label will be ‘Sirenna (Today We See Colour)’ on 6 Sep, followed by the album on 13 Sep.
