Deaf Havana are back with a new album, a litany of new singles, and a surety they haven’t had before.
It’s been a rollercoaster few years for brothers Matty and James Veck-Gilodi: amid the uncertainty of the Covid-19 pandemic and live music being all but extinct, the band they had been in since they were teenagers was coming to and end.

The frontman had demons to battle in the writing of the new record. Having previously gone sober for close to a year, James says he is now ‘currently not in a period of sobriety.’
