One of the most explosive and exciting live acts to emerge from the UK in years – HIS LORDSHIP – come flying out of the traps with the announcement of their debut self-titled album, out January 12th, 2024 and produced by David Wrench and Tchad Blake (Arctic Monkeys, Black Keys).
A tour de force of twelve frenetic, frenzied, rapturous tracks, the album will also include their latest offering “Jackie Works For The NHS” — a monster garage rock anthem with a chorus that will blow the roof off venues across the country when they take to the road in November. Totalling seven shows, the tour will conclude in what will be a simply wild night in the capital at London’s Garage on 17 November.
“England 2023. Our beloved NHS is being dismantled piece by piece,” the band explain. “Jackie lives on our block. Jackie works for the NHS. We love Jackie. God save the NHS.”
A maximum rock’n’roll trio conceived during lockdown to blow the cobwebs away and remind us of what music has been missing, the band are made up of the powerhouse duo of James Walbourne (The Pretenders, The Pogues, The Rails) and Kristoffer Sonne (Chrissie Hynde, Willie Nelson), the band’s first single “All Cranked Up” hit the 6 Music B-List last summer, followed by “Buzzkill”, an angular, twisted ear worm produced by David Wrench (Courtney Barnett, XX, Frank Ocean).
His Lordship sold out their debut UK tour in 2022, and then joined Jason Isbell on a sell out European tour culminating with a roof raising show at London’s Eventim Apollo. Earlier this year the band also headed out on their biggest headline tour to date, taking in 12 cities, including a sold-out headline show at London’s Lafayette.
Now, to coincide with the album announcement, the band will be hitting the road again for a run of UK headline shows this November. Full dates and details below.
