Comedy/music duo Austin & Colin has signed with BMG/BBR Music Group.

The signing announcement coincides with the release of “Guilt Tippin’,” their new anthem tackling the excessive guilt of inappropriate tipping in a post-Covid world, out now.

Friends from Cincinnati, Austin & Colin began their careers in Nashville after attending Lipscomb University and Belmont University. Drawing inspiration from Lonely Island, Bo Burnham and Weird Al Yankovic, they satirize life’s quirks through catchy and anthemic jams blending EDM beats with electric guitars, spicy synth melodies, and hilariously relatable lyrics.

The duo have built a reputation for their comedic chemistry, delivering side-splitting sketches and satirical commentary. With a passion for laughter and a knack for capturing the absurdities of everyday life, they have amassed a dedicated fanbase with over six million views on their “Welcome To Nashville” series and collaborations with Jake Owen, Walker Hayes and Ryan Hurd.

“We are thrilled to unleash the incredibly creative breakout comedic and music duo Austin & Colin to the world. This song [‘Guilt Tippin”] is just the beginning of a new chapter at BMG,” says Peter Strickland, General Manager, BMG. “Personally, I’m still waiting on my team jacket.”

“We’re thrilled to be joining the BMG family and can’t wait to work with their talented team to take our music to the next level!,” says Austin & Colin. “It’s a dream come true that the wonderful people at BMG believe in our wild vision to bring joy and laughter to the world, and we cannot wait to reach new heights together.”
