Scottish band Frightened Rabbit, now on tour in the U.K., have announced they have signed to Atlantic Records, leaving former label Fat Cat after three albums. The band has said that they will take some time off early next year to write songs before heading back into the studio to start work on record number four.

On signing with Atlantic, the band has said "It feels very special to be a part of a label with such a great history and we're really looking forward to working with everybody we've met to this point."

Frightened Rabbit will be playing Empire, Belfast on December 8 and The Academy, Dublin on December 9.
