Record deal for Britain's Got Talent stars Escala

Judge Simon Cowell signs up the electric string quartet

Escala were favourites to win Britain's Got Talent

Britain’s Got Talent finalists Escala are to launch their debut album on 3 November.

The electric string quartet got to the final of ITV show Britain’s Got Talent, but lost out to break dancer George Sampson.

But they have still landed a multi-million pound contract with Simon Cowell, 48.

'It's amazing that Simon is supporting us,' Tasya Hodges told Now Online at an exclusive preview.

'We're really excited that we're finally releasing the album.'

The girls – Izzy Johnston, 24, Chantal Leverton, 25, Victoria Lyon, 25, and Taysa, 26 – have yet to decide on a name for the forthcoming record.
