US rockers Copeland sign with Columbia Records

MAINSTREAM music giant Columbia Records have signed Copeland, the emerging Christian indie rock band whose latest album, 'Eat, Sleep, Repeat', entered Billboard's Top 200 best-selling albums chart at number 90. The band's previous album 'In Motion' got to 115 on the mainstream album charts in March 2005.

Nothing drastic will change other than the fact that hopefully a few more ears will get to hear our music."
