London-born, Devon-raised folk singer Ben Howard has announced the release of his new single ‘Old Pine’ on the 6th August through Island Records. The release comes ahead of a sold out month long jaunt around the UK that culminates in three sold out show’s at London’s Brixton Academy.
It’s been quite a year for Ben with over 200,000 sales of his debut album ‘Every Kingdom’ in the UK alone, two sold-outs tours of the US as well as a hectic summer of festival appearances. All this coming before his biggest UK tour to date in November. His UK tour later this year has now sold in excess of 50,000 tickets alone.
