Avril Lavigne Announces Signing to Travis Barker’s DTA Records

In the midst of a prolonged pop-punk revival, Avril Lavigne has signed a label deal with DTA Records, which is run by one of the movement’s main players: Travis Barker.
“Let’s f–k s–t up!” Lavigne posted on Wednesday (Nov. 3), in an Instagram caption of a shot of her alongside Barker. “Just signed a record contract to Travis Barker’s record label DTA Records! Should I drop my first single next week?”
DTA Records was launched in late 2019 by the Blink-182 drummer as a joint venture with Elektra Records. The label has served as both a home for rising acts like jxdn and Caspr, as well as a hub for Barker’s collaborations across hip-hop and rock.

“Grow,” a Willow song featuring both Lavigne and Barker, was released on her album Lately I Feel Everything album in July. Lavigne also released the Mod Sun collaboration “Flames” earlier this year.
