Mark Ronson to helm Rumble Strips LP
Mark Ronson has confirmed that he will be producing The Rumble Strips's second album.

The Devon rockers recently signed to Ronson's Allido Records label, which he runs with Rich Kleiman.

He will begin working on the record in September, with a scheduled release date of spring 2009.

Speaking about his friendship with the band, Ronson said: "I came across The Rumble Strips through their cover of 'Back to Black', and Amy [Winehouse] and I agreed it was kind of better than our own.

"I picked up their album and fell in love with it."

He continued: "Then I decided I wanted to sign them to my label and work on their next album. It was really as straightforward as that. We're all very excited about this."

The Rumble Strips's debut LP Girls And Weather, which featured the singles 'Time', 'Motorcycle' and 'Alarm Clock', was released in September 2007.
