During a recent interview, we were catching up with The Holiday Plan working on their new album. It turns out, however, that they've split with their label Island Records over issues with MTV2's Breaking Point show.
"The Holiday Plan have parted ways with Island despite their debut single 'Stories/Sunshine' sitting at #58 in this week's charts. The band have an album largely recorded, a Summer of activity including Reading/Leeds Festival and a very loyal fanbase, in all truth the end of their relationship with Island may be a blessing in disguise. The Holiday Plan need a home that is willing to cater for development. That home is not Island Records. Under no circumstances would The Holiday Plan have entered into Breaking Point if the truth had been revealed from the start that it was a pop oriented competition. The Holiday Plan were told the opposite (it was a documentary about Rock bands with no competition element) and the breakdown of their relationship with Island began at the point the lies started and is the consequence. They are currently in the studio completing their debut album"
