Low Hummer
Low Hummer are a fast-rising six piece from Hull (UK) that write about their life in deepest darkest East Yorkshire and their place in a world of consumerism and bad news stories sold as gospel. The band released their debut album ‘Modern Tricks For Living’ in September 2021 via independent Leeds label Dance To The Radio - an impressive debut record that throws together classic indie songwriting, anthemic noughties garage rock and more than a little 80’s inspired synth sounds. Championed by the likes of BBC 6 Music, Radio 1, Clash, Dork, Gigwise and Spotify Editorial playlists, ‘Modern Tricks For Living’ established Low Hummer as one of the UK’s most exciting new alternative bands.
Excitement surrounding Low Hummer’s brilliant debut and their gripping live performances continues to build following a feature with Tim Burgess Listening Party, a sold-out run of Dinked Exclusive vinyl, headline performances on the BBC Introducing Stage at Reading & Leeds Festival 2021 and a recent UK tour support with Welsh indie icons Manic Street Preachers across 13 shows this Autumn.
