Grammy Award-winning rock band Alabama Shakes has signed with Pure Represents for representation across Europe and the UK, expanding their reach in international markets. The band continues to be managed by Red Light Management and currently has over 2.5 million monthly listeners on Spotify. Their most recent release, Until There’s Nothing Left, is a collaboration with electronic music producer LP Giobbi, showcasing their continued evolution and ability to experiment across genres.

Career Highlights:
Alabama Shakes burst onto the music scene with their debut album Boys & Girls in 2012, which included their breakthrough hit Hold On. The album received widespread critical acclaim and earned the band multiple Grammy nominations, solidifying them as one of the most exciting rock bands of the decade. Their distinct blend of Southern rock, blues, and soul, paired with lead singer Brittany Howard’s powerhouse vocals, made them a standout act.

In 2015, Alabama Shakes released their sophomore album Sound & Color, which further elevated their career. The album debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 and went on to win four Grammy Awards, including Best Alternative Music Album and Best Rock Song for Don’t Wanna Fight. Sound & Color showcased a more experimental and eclectic sound, incorporating elements of funk, psychedelia, and R&B, and solidified their reputation as a genre-defying band.

Recent Work and Evolution:
While Alabama Shakes has been on a hiatus, members of the band, particularly lead singer Brittany Howard, have pursued solo projects. Howard’s debut solo album Jaime (2019) was met with critical praise, earning multiple Grammy nominations and allowing her to explore new musical territories.

Their latest collaboration with LP Giobbi on Until There’s Nothing Left marks a return to collective music-making and demonstrates their ability to continue pushing creative boundaries, blending rock with electronic influences.

With their new representation by Pure Represents, Alabama Shakes is poised to further expand their presence in Europe and the UK, bringing their unique sound to new audiences while continuing to build on their legacy as one of the most dynamic bands in modern rock music.
