The big day for The Howlers is May 17th.

The Howlers have confirmed the details of their long awaited debut album.

What You’ve Got To Lose To Win It All will comprise 15 tracks produced by Black Honey, with Lady Luck taken from those to be the lead single.




“Lady Luck is one of those tracks that never really quite had a place, Adam had the main riff for years often playing it during soundcheck or rehearsals but it never had a song round it, multiple attempts to write a song around it always came out missing the mark by miles,” the band have said of it.

For a long time it was this problem child, Guus would often say ‘Just leave it now’ but Adam knew there was something in it, he just couldn’t see it yet. Eventually the song as it is today came into being by chopping up multiple other songs in similar states of limbo for verses and a chorus and smashing them together, sort of like a frankenstein’s monster of a track made up of all the best bits of other songs, and now it’s one of our favourite songs to play live.
