In January, Drowners released their self-titled debut LP. Based in NYC, the city’s signature up-all-night energy courses through the album’s veins, although it does bring with it a tinge of sweet melancholy as well.

Comprised of frontman Matt Hitt, Jack Ridley III (guitar, vocals), Erik Lee Snyder (bass), and Lakis E. Pavlou (drums), Drowners will be bringing their  live show – honed by supports with the likes of Arctic Monkeys, The Vaccines, Cage the Elephant and others – to the UK this summer, playing a slew of headline dates before embarking on a tour with likeminded partners Peace straight after.

“Drowners” is available now on Frenchkiss Records
