Birmingham band signs to major record label

The Wandering Hearts have been signed by Decca Records, home to artists such as Alfie Boe, Imelda May and The Lumineers.

Devil is the first single they have released on the label, following the release of their successful debut single Wish I Could.

The Wandering Hearts say of Devil: “This is a story about throwing your hands up in the air, admitting your flaws and past mistakes, and owning them. Living life how you want to live it and knowing that if it all goes wrong, at least it was your choice. Ultimately, life is about doing what you’re passionate about and having hope for whatever may lie ahead.”

Discovered within half an hour of uploading their first demo online, The Wandering Hearts signed a major recording deal with Decca Records shortly after. This year has seen the band play a sold-out headline show at St Pancras Old Church and support Ward Thomas before kicking off their festival season at Red Rooster, Cornbury and BST Hyde Park. Music-lovers can catch them at a string of festivals in July.

The band are currently working on their debut album with producer Pete Hammerton.
