Wednesday 1st October 2008
We congratulate Only Men Aloud! on signing a major record deal with Universal Music, the home to artists including Amy Winehouse, Elton John, Girls Aloud, Bryn Terfel and Katherine Jenkins.
Universal Music fought against other labels to sign up Only Men Aloud! after the choir won the prime-time BBC1 show Last Choir Standing. The choir signed the bilingual English/Welsh contract in Cardiff, recognising the support of Wales in their success.
Only Men Aloud! have worked with John Hardy on many occasions, including recording the BAFTA Cymru-winning soundtrack for Y Pris and the joint commission and premiere of choral work Spaces: Beyond the End of the World
