Young Kato, a 6 piece band that met in Cheltenham, have just signed to influential Manchester-based label LAB Records and are currently working on a 4- track EP ‘Young Kato EP’ to be released on 23^rd July 2012.  The EP has been produced by Gordon Mills Jnr (Placebo, Ed Sheeran).

This will be preceded by single ‘Drink Dance Play’ on 3^rd June 2012 –  an amazing, punchy track likened to the pop offspring of Friendly Fires and Morrissey, a track about living every day like it’s your last.

Averaging an age of just 18, Young Kato have already cause quite a stir and have played support shows in front of 7,000+ strong crowds in Bristol late last year, and now regularly sell out shows in the West Country.

Leading up to their biggest ever gig at Cribbs Causeway with Pixie Lott at the Bristol Diamond Jubilee Concert on June 2nd, the band will play the Bristol Cooler on 5^th May.

Young Kato play the following dates:

May 5^th       Cooler, Bristol

June 2^nd     Cribbs Causeway Queens Diamond Jubilee Festival, Bristol

July 20^th     2 Pigs, Cheltenham

July 21^st     Gloucester Park Festival, Gloucester

July 26th    The Rainbow, Birmingham

July 27^th      Thekla, Bristol
