Imagem Music, home to such talent as Vampire Weekend, Daft Punk, Anna Nalick, Jens Gad and Rebecca Jordan, has signed a worldwide, multi-year co-publishing agreement with indie-electro band French Horn Rebellion (brothers David and Robert Perlick-Molinari).

"French Horn Rebellion has the ability to write fun, catchy and accessible dance songs while maintaining a sense of creativity that is utterly their own," commented Molly Seel, who works in the Imagem Music creative department and brought the band to the company. "David and Robert are a very talented and dynamic duo and we are thrilled to have them as a part of the Imagem Music family."

David Perlick-Molinari said, "For us this is a big step forward and we feel having Imagem on our team is going to help us in ways that we can't even imagine right now." His brother Robert commented, "My mother is a published writer, and I can guarantee you she never thought I would be one as well."

"Over the last 18 months we have been building French Horn Rebellion through a number of releases and tours in Europe, Asia and North and South America," said Roland Hill, co-manager (Once Upon A Time Management). "We are extremely excited to be joining Imagem Music's US team and extensive list of global partners to capitalize on this work and take French Horn Rebellion to the next level as both artists and writers."

About French Horn Rebellion

David and Robert Perlick-Molinari, originally from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, have toured and played with the likes of Hot Chip, Sleigh Bells, The Drums, Cut Copy and MGMT and have been tipped by everyone from Q Magazine, The Guardian, Time Out and French music bible Les Inrockuptibles to hometown publications such as the New York Times and NY Daily News. The Brooklyn-based duo already had an illustrious pedigree; David produced MGMT's indie release, Time to Pretend EP for New York indie Cantora Records, and with previous single "Up All Night" they scored a Record of the Week on BBC Radio 1 and an opening slot on the influential Kitsuné Maison compilation series. The band has also remixed the likes of MEN, Two Door Cinema Club, and OMD. The duo has just finished touring Asia and is currently on a 27-date North American tour supporting Yelle, which kicked off in Phoenix on April 17th. For more: www.frenchhornrebellion.com.
