Deuce return with Love This release

Deuce have signed to Mike Stock's Love This label four months after splitting from London Records.

Manager Tom Watkins says the act is being reshaped for a more mature audience for relaunch later this spring, adding that former frontwoman Kelly O'Keeffe has been replaced by Amanda Perkins.

The band are currently recording their first single for Love This produced by Stock and Matt Aitken, with a release scheduled for April.

Watkins, of Massive Management, says, "It's much better for us to be associated with a hit-making label rather than one that doesn't want a pop act on its rooster." Deuce are planning a head-line tour in the summer, he adds.

Mike Stock says he approached Watkins after seeing the outfit performing live. "I hate the idea of wasting a good pop band," he says.
