Ben Howard

Be here for Ben Howard's Royal Festival Hall debut, with an album that brings together the many facets of his talent: classic songwriting roots, virtuoso guitar playing and electronic textures. Following 2018's atmospheric Noonday Dream, Howard's fourth album is co-produced by The National's Aaron Dessner. Howard had always approached his albums with a clear idea of what they were going to be, be it the pastoral songwriting of Every Kingdom, the electrified anguish of its chart-topping follow-up, I Forget Where We Were, or the rich atmospherics of the acclaimed Noonday Dream. All of these elements are present in Collections from the Whiteout, but recalibrated to forge a new sound that is both impossible to pin down and unmistakably his.
