Westlife have parted from Simon Cowells's record label, according to MSN Music.
The lads have been signed with Syco records for 13 years, but they have now signed a multi-million pound deal with Sony RCA.
The change occurred a month after Syco supposedly decided not to release a single that Westlife wanted from the Gravity album.
Nicky Byrne yesterday admitted on Twitter that the group had split from the record label, "Re Syco .. Truth is yes we have moved on from Syco records after a fantastic 13years.. But it is time for a change and it's very exciting..!"
Manager and X Factor judge Louis Walsh said, "The move was a natural progression. There was no bad feeling."
If the fans tweets are anything to go by then Westlife's immense following are just as excited about the change as the lads are.
Mark Feehily said, "Yes 'Gravity' is the last album for us to make with Simon Cowell & his label. We love & respect him & thank him for his part in WL!"
"Time for a new chapter. We are still very young & have lots of energy left in us so here's 2 the future! New label,new lease of 'life'!"
"Bring.It.Bloodywell.On!"
