Imagem Music UK today announce the signing of Temples, the hotly tipped British band that have led the revival in the UK Psych and Garage scene, to a multi year worldwide publishing agreement.

Signed to Heavenly Records, and Fat Possum Records in North America, four piece Temples have already had strong support at Radio 1 (including Zane Lowe’s Hottest Record In The World and Record of The Week) with 6 Music and XFM also giving playlist action. In the live arena, support slots have included The Vaccines and Primal Scream.

Led by James Bagshaw (guitar/vocals) and Tom Warmsley (bass/backing vocals) with Sam Toms (drums) and Adam Smith (keys), the band have also been championed by Paul Weller, Noel Gallagher, The Horrors and Johnny Marr, with early press support including the NME, Mojo, The Fly and The Guardian.

Sam Mumford, A&R Manager Imagem Music UK comments, “Temples are a hugely exciting band who are resonating more and more with the public and with their peers. 

They are making exciting music with a real depth and maturity to it that grabs you on first listen.”
