At the start of 2022, The Howlers, outwardly at least, were on a high. They had just completed a sold-out tour, off the back of recording their debut EP during the depths of the 2020 lockdowns. ‘We took the decision to bubble together during the pandemic,’ says lead-vocalist Adam Young, describing the band’s near-apocalyptic experience of travelling back and forth between their shared living accommodation and a rehearsal studio, made available to them by previous members of Palma Violets and Big Moon.

The debut album, whose title ‘What You’ve Got To Lose To Win It All’ is taken from one of the lyrics in ‘El Dorado’ was recorded, again with the support Black Honey, in Eastbourne over a period of 8 days. The record returns to The Howlers self-coined genre of desert rock, but draws on Adam, Guus and Tom’s wide ranging individual influences. This confluence of soul, pop, rock and folk results in a driving, cinematic record.

The experience of recording their debut album over those eight days near the beach in Eastbourne was both cathartic and healing for a band who have gone through so much, both collectively and as individuals. Adam recalls the final day of recording, when they discovered that a huge fireworks display, and bonfire was taking place in the town. It was pure coincidence that this local event was happening, but for The Howlers it felt like an important, celebratory moment; watching a firework display together as the perfect cinematic ending to recording an album that has processed so many emotions and challenges and is a testament to a band who has triumphed against the odds. https://www.thehowlers.co.uk
