Matthew Hitt | Drowners

Описание

The band Drowners formed when Welsh-born Matthew Hitt moved to New York in 2011 to pursue a career in modelling. With a degree in English Literature he found time to "write and jam on my guitar every day". He recruited three local musicians and began rehearsing and recording the songs. On February 4, 2013, Drowners released their first EP “Between Us Girls” on the English label Birthday Records. The EP contains three short songs, which included “Long Hair” - often cited as the lead track. The band headed to Europe for the first time in February 2014 in support of their album, to perform a small number of London shows (including an in-store performance at Rough Trade East), and were main support for Cage The Elephant on their European tour and main support for SKATERS on their UK tour. A few months later, the band signed with a Frenchkiss Records, where they started to record their first studio album. The album was produced by Gus Oberg and Johnny T, and it contains thirteen songs, included the EP’s songs. The band opened shows for Arctic Monkeys, The Vaccines and Foals while undertaking their first headlining tour of North America and Europe in February/March 2014. -------------------------------------------------------------- Matt's birthday is on May 30th.
