Keep Your Head Up
Ben Howard
WE SAY
Crowned this week's 'Hottest Record in The World' by Zane Lowe, Keep Your Head Up is the second single released by Island in run up to Ben Howard's debut album - Every Kingdom. We first featured Ben in May with his single Old Pine which was released on Communion. He has continued to receive strong support from Radio 1, Radio 2 and Xfm and due to the level of live demand, has added a second London Scala date to his October UK tour. The album, not out until October 3 is already climbing pre-release charts. Ben Howard manages to bring an exciting energy to folk music and with his West Coast popularity turning national, he looks set for great things.
London Gig: October 26/27, Scala N1
