English singer-songwriter Ben Howard will play the Bell Centre in Montreal on October 6th.
Howard last played the city back in January 2015 and will return in support of his new album ‘Noonday Dream’ which is released in June.
The full-length LP is his first since 2014’s ‘I Forget Where We Were’, although he did contribute to last summer’s debut from A Blaze Of Feathers.
The new record was produced by Ben himself in numerous studios between South West France and South West England.
“Nica Libres At Dusk,” the lead single off the album debuts today. The new music has begun to receive widespread critical praise. The Independent proclaims, “‘A Boat To An Island On The Wall’ is a sprawling, mesmerizing track that shifts restlessly, rocking back and forth like that small boat on the waves, with the familiar sound of Howard’s low, gruff vocals,” while Paste adds, “This seven-minute single [‘A Boat To An Island On The Wall’] features Howard harmonizing with himself, as ambient chords slowly ease the quiet song into a grungy guitar riff.” NYLON furthers, “Press play and let this cinematic gem wash over you.”
Support for the Montreal show comes from Wye Oak.
Tickets: $48.25 to $58.50 (price for box office purchase).
Handling fees may apply for online purchase.
Tickets are also available at the Bell Centre box office.
