"We're delighted to welcome The Howl and The Hum back to Twisterella for our tenth anniversary. The band is much-loved in the North East and we are so thrilled that they will be getting us underway as our reverse-headliner for this year's festival. We can't wait to hear new tracks from their forthcoming album alongside some of their crowd favourites such as ‘Godmanchester Chinese Bridge’ and ‘Hostages’. They've built a real affinity with Twisterella and Middlesbrough in general over the past few years, so it's going to be a fantastic way to kick off Twisterella 2024," says Andy Carr, co-promoter of Twisterella.

Twisterella takes place across multiple venues in Middlesborough on 12 October. For more information, and to purchase a ticket, visit twisterella.co.uk.
