Rock band Gypsy Pistoleros have announced a management contract with Karl Wilcox and Siren Management.

Mr Wilcox, recognised for his part as the drummer of Diamond Head, brings a musician's perspective to management after spending several years in the industry.

Ace Trump, the chief executive officer of Siren Management, will also be integral in the new management venture.

Mr Trump has a track record as a manager in the rock business, managing legendary bands, including Thin Lizzy, Saxon, Europe, Uriah Heep, and Stiff Little Fingers.

Over the years, he has built significant expertise in artist management.

Gypsy Pistoleros expressed their confidence in Mr Wilcox and Mr Trump and their enthusiasm for the future with these industry veterans at the helm.

They will join an established Siren roster that includes Diamond Head, The Residents, and Elegant Weapons.

The management change comes at a challenging time for the music industry.

However, the band expressed relief entrusting their career to an experienced team, and look forward to the adventures that will unfold under the new management.

The Gypsy Pistoleros have also completed recording their latest album, 'Church of the Pistoleros'.

Building on the success of their UK charting album 'Duende a Go Go Loco!' from last year, the band returned to The Old Cider Press Studios in Pershore where they worked with collaborator, co-writer and producer Dave Draper.

Mr Draper is a rising star in the production field and has previously collaborated with bands such as The Wildhearts and Terrorvision.

The band also hinted at forthcoming information updates about their record label, major festival dates, and tour news.

Listeners can expect a unique blend of anthemic rock, Latin swagger, Phil Spector 50's ballads, glam punk rock, EMO and goth, with rock and rock opera in the album.
