February 3rd, 2015

North East England-based heavy metal group Tygers Of Pan Tang have signed an album contract with Mighty Music, part of the Target Group, revealing this development on February 3rd, 2016.

Tygers Of Pan Tang guitarist Robb Weir issued the following statement: “This is a landmark album for the Tygers. Self-titled and self-produced, we feel we have written some pretty special hard rock songs. The sound is classic Tygers and the new cover version we have chosen to record is spectacular — after all, ‘Love Potion #9’ is 34 years old. It’s a big year for the band, with 10 shows in South America in March, then festival’s in Chicago, Ibiza, Gent, Alicante, a British tour starting October 21 and a European tour we’re going to be applying to the time lords for membership.”

Mighty Music CEO Michael H. Andersen shared the following words, meanwhile: “It’s no less than a landmark for our company to have signed Tygers Of Pan Tang. Having worked with and still working with artists like Mike Tramp, Volbeat and Pretty Maids, it is a great honour to welcome the Tygers to our family. After visiting the band in the Blast Studio in Newcastle, I have no doubts this is gonna be a classic hard rock album my staff and I will be very proud of releasing.”

At the time of writing, the band are currently at Blast Studio in Newcastle, England working on a self-titled 11th full-length studio album, slated for August issue. A European tour is scheduled to promote its release.

Tygers Of Pan Tang’s line-up is as follows:
