BRETON announce their signing to FatCat Records, the label who discovered Sigur Ros, Animal Collective and No Age.
The signing follows a very busy year for BRETON, a year that saw them release a critically acclaimed EP trilogy, as well as creating fantastic videos (Eighties Matchbox B-Line Disaster, Penguin Prison, Flats) and remixes (Temper Trap, Local Natives, IS TROPICAL, Chapel Club, Tricky, Esben and the Witch) under their bretonLABS incarnation.
