Americana
rockers Angela Perley & The Howlin’ Moons announce the release of
their new single “Hurricane” off their recently released debut LP Hey
Kid, out now. This Columbus, Ohio based foursome blends their unique
alternative country sound with shades of old-school rock comparable to
artists like the Black Keys, Jessica Lea Mayfield and Old 97’s. Hey Kid
is a fusion of dreamy melodies against gritty guitars, led by the crisp
vocals of lead singer Angela Perley.
The
band was formed in 2009 when Chris Connor (lead guitar, vox) and Billy
Zenhal (bass) were introduced to Perley by way of Vital Music USA, the
Columbus-based label to which the they are now signed. Later, Jeff
Martin (drums) joined the group, completing the band’s current lineup.
They released their three EP’s locally, breaking into the national arena
with their fourth EP, 2012’s Nowhere Is Now Here. Hey Kid is the band’s
first full-length release and has earned international praise
throughout the US and UK markets.
Hey
Kid was named one of the Top 50 Albums of 2014 by The Alternate Root.
The band has earned accolades from Knox Road, Americana U.K. and
American Songwriter, who says of Hey Kid, “The Ohio native carves out
her own space in rock & roll, crooning and snarling her way through
rootsy songs about love, lust and life in the Midwest.” Stay tuned for
more from Angela Perley & The Howlin’ Moons!
