Pet Shop Boys have signed a new deal with Parlophone Records. Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe originally signed to the label in March 1985 and renegotiated a new deal with the company in 1990. Pet Shop Boys’ most recent album, Fundamental, was their last under that contract. Their next studio album will be the first under the new contract.
Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe commented: “It’s over 20 years since we originally signed to EMI and we’re very happy to be continuing our relationship with them”.
Miles Leonard, Parlophone’s MD says: “What Pet Shop Boys are doing is unique. They continue to be at the vanguard of pop culture, constantly surprising and thrilling us with their every move. We are extremely pleased to have them on the label.”
Neil has been interviewed by Jake Shears on his “Queer The Music” podcast, talking about the lyrics and the making of the PSB song “It’s a sin”, Pet Shop Boys’ creative process, collaborators and much more. The season finale episode is out now and available at the link below.
