East London trio The Howlers have announced that their UK headline tour will be visiting The Cornish Bank, Falmouth on October 17.
This news follows the release of their debut album ‘What You’ve Got to Lose to Win It All’, with the release of a deluxe version, out now featuring new single ‘Gott Go’.
The band have recently hit the top 20 in the independent album chart. The album was produced by Black Honey and defined by resilience, friendship and unconditional love through unimaginable pain.
In the run-up to the release, the band released a string of singles that have seen them soundtracking BBC Match of the Day’s Goal of the Month and ITV Race Day, whilst picking up support from The Line of Best Fit, Clash, 1883 Magazine, Rolling Stone and Classic Rock Magazine all over Europe.
The band’s 250 Blood Records limited edition copies of the album on vinyl sold out in under 7 minutes, a success which prompted them to release the deluxe version, with tracks that didn’t quite make it onto the original album.
Speaking about the decision, frontman Adam said: “As a band, we have always been a fan of the lost art of the ‘B-Side’ track, a lost art since the invention of streaming platforms, so with this album, we wanted to give the fans something extra.
“That doesn't happen that often these days, so here’s a collection of songs that didn't quite make the main album, some early demos, and some tracks that you won't be able to hear anywhere else, a little something extra for our wonderful.
“We are an independent band whose debut album got to number 15 here in the UK and various top 10’s across Europe, without our fans that wouldn’t have been possible.”
‘What You’ve Got to Lose to Win It All’ finds a band at the top of their game. Across the 12 tracks, they conjure up cinematic landscapes a long, long way from London’s East End.
Escapism, perhaps, but entirely understandable and justified given what frontman Adam has experienced over the last two years.
Two life-changing strokes in the course of two months, the loss of four family members and two close friends and the following immeasurable grief have all played a huge part in the creation of the album, the devoted bond between bandmates and the unique connection between the band and their fanbase.
