Producer Mark Ronson has signed The Rumble Strips to his record label, Allido Records, it's been announced.
In add-on to the deal, which ties the band in with Universal Records, Ronson also confirmed that he will acquire their second album.
The record, which will be the follow-up to 2007's 'Girls and Weather', is due to be released in early 2009.
In a statement, Ronson said he discovered the band after they covered Amy Winehouse's 'Back To Black', which he produced.
�I picked up their album and felled seam in honey with it. Then I decided I wanted to sign them to my label and work on their adjacent album," he said.
"It was really as straight ahead as that. We're all very excited about this."
