Husky have signed a worldwide record deal with renowned American label Sub Pop, as well as announcing a huge Australian headline tour, after a number of planned international dates.
The Melbourne band will be the first-ever Australian group to be signed to Sub Pop, joining the likes of world-class acts Fleet Foxes, Beach House and The Head and the Heart, and grunge legends Nirvana and Soundgarden.
Husky had a steady climb throughout 2011, winning triple j unearthed, releasing their debut album Forever So to critical acclaim, supporting Gotye and touring nationally at sold-out venues.
Following recent national appearances at Laneway Festival, the band will tour throughout Germany with European duo BOY performing more than 15 shows to over 20,000 people, then perform at SXSW in Austin, Texas, at Canadian Music Week and in New York City and LA.
