Howling Bells

Howling Bells is an Australian indie rock band formed in Sydney in 2004 from the remnants of Waikiki, featuring siblings Juanita Stein (vocals/guitar) and Joel Stein (guitar/keys), with Brendan Picchio (bass) and Glenn Moule (drums); known for their atmospheric, cinematic sound and Juanita's distinctive vocals, they gained UK attention with their self-titled 2006 debut, blending influences from PJ Harvey to Nick Cave, and have since explored themes of heartbreak and heritage through albums like Radio Wars (2009) and Heartstrings (2014).
