Debut album is out now. Our next record is underway. Always gigging.
The Mighty Howlers
The Mighty Howlers are a high-energy British rhythm & blues band delivering sharp riffs, driving grooves and a live show built to move a crowd.
Rooted in the fierce tradition of Dr Feelgood, Nine Below Zero and The Fabulous Thunderbirds - with a nod to ZZ Top and the raw Chicago blues greats - the band blend vintage grit with modern punch. This isn’t background blues. It’s front-of-stage, sweat-soaked, dance-floor-filling R&B.
With a packed gig schedule across the South West and beyond, The Mighty Howlers have earned their stripes on major festival stages including:
The Great British Rhythm & Blues Festival
Tenby Blues Festival
Swanage Blues Festival
Boardmasters
Alongside these headline events, the band are regular fixtures at club shows, ticketed venues and regional festivals, building a loyal following that travels to see them.
Their 13-track debut album is available on all major streaming platforms, and their next release is currently in production - written between gigs and shaped by the energy of the live stage.
The Mighty Howlers don’t just play the blues… They deliver it.
Blues Unleashed… British Rhythm & Blues with bite.
Their tough, high energy, performances have proved to be very popular with both the dance crowd and the blues purists. Those members of the audience who would not have considered themselves devotees of Blues Music at the start of the evening, tend to be wholly converted by the time The Mighty Howlers have completed their roaring sets!

What people are hoping about us…
"In my opinion! The best blues you are going to hear in the south west by a long way. tried several times to keep my feet still but it’s even harder than not chewing a fruit pastel!!
I Encourage anyone who likes a little blues to at least go and listen once! You won’t be disappointed."
Mick, Redruth“I came to watch you at the cobweb, as a blues harp player myself and after proper good reviews from other locals. Was i impressed? Hell yeah! Come back soon and I hope we can chew the fat.”
Steve, Boscastle“Saw these last night (Mevagissey Feast Festival) absolutely flipping flawless, amazing”
Dawn, Somerset“Fantastic gig last night you guys were amazing. Thank you for bringing such a big crowd with you it’s much appreciated. Everybody left very happy.”
Neil, Reading"This band are so tight - the blues courses through their veins - the front man has the most blue bluesy blues voice and what he can do with that harp is ridiculous! Add to that Justin keeping the heart beating on drums, a cracking 5 string bass player, and an incredible guitar player - all in all blew everyone away!”
Tracey, Plymouth“Good solid Rockin’ blues with a little bit of rockabilly thrown in for good measure.”
Gary, St Austell“Great dance music and good presentation. And they're all great musicians!”
Tom, Falmouth“Saw (heard) you at the Union Inn (Saltash) last night, great performance, thank you gentlemen.
a real privilege.
Preparation, Presentation and Performance all exemplary. Some other bands may like to take note, this is how it should be done. P.S. have just bought your CD, looking forward to the next one.”
