Lauded British singer-songwriter Ben Howard continues to bask in acclaim from his breakout year, winning two Brit Awards for Best Male Solo Artist andBreakthrough Act. Howard was also nominated for the Mercury Prize's Album of the Year and made appearances on "The Late Show with David Letterman" and "Jimmy Kimmel Live!"

The musician's celebrated live performances have resulted in back-to-back sell-out tours, both overseas and stateside. Of his live set, KCRW notes "[he] has the audience in musical awe." In honor of his massive touring schedule including a support slot on the east coast leg of Mumford & Sons' February run, and upcoming U.S. appearances at Central Park SummerStage on July 29 and Lollapalooza on August 3, Pollstar Magazine feature Howard on their May 13 cover. See below for tour details.

Howard's debut album Every Kingdom, now certified Platinum in the U.K., garnered attention from Billboard and USA Today, with the The New York Times hailing, "Howard's songs...cascade from his fingers, gathering words and melodies as they go, carrying his reedy, tremulous voice as their crescendos surge."

The Burgh Island E.P., out now, debuted #1 on iTunes in the U.K. and top 30 on iTunes in the U.S. The new music is also available as limited edition vinyl frombenhowardmusic.co.uk.
