Long Branch Records is excited to announce signing an international deal with London rockers BLACK ORCHID EMPIRE. The three-piece are the latest addition to the label's constantly growing roster, and will release their new single 'Celebrity Summer' on 6 April 2018.

"We discovered Black Orchid Empire through a Facebook post we did last year asking for bands that our followers are currently listen to. Black Orchid Empire was one of them", says Long Branch Records label manager Manuel Schönfeld. "Their new demos convinced the team so we stepped deeper into a conversation and it was quickly clear that both management and the band, as well as us as the label, want to team up for new releases. We're happy to welcome another highly talented band to our artist roster."

Paul Visser, vocals & guitar in BLACK ORCHID EMPIRE, adds: "We're beyond stoked to sign with Long Branch, it's amazing to work with a label who understand our music and are passionate about helping us get it out into the world. We absolutely cannot wait to share what we've made with everyone - it's incredibly special to us. See you on the road!”
