Howling Bells return with first new music in over a decade, "Unbroken"

Howling Bells have returned with "Unbroken" as their first new music in over a decade, alongside the announcement of a London show on 5 November.

“You can either call it childlike or stupidity, but you have to have that in order to believe that something greater can happen. Surviving as a band for over two decades requires extraordinary grit and, to some degree, irrationality. None of it really makes sense, except for the will and the love of the music itself. Unbroken is very much a testament to all of this,” singer Juanita Stein says.

The band’s first release since their 2014 album, Heartstrings, "Unbroken" was recorded with Howling Bells’ long-time friend and collaborator, producer Ben Hillier (Blur, Depeche Mode, Elbow). In celebration of their return, Howling Bells will return to the stage for a special full band show at the Lock Tavern in Camden on 5 November.

"Unbroken" is out now on Nude Records. Tickets for their headline show will go on sale at 10am on Tuesday 23 September.
