Cold Reach

Love Can Wait

First single and title track from Howlin' Circus's debut album. Released Nov 22, 2018.

Run The Wrong Way

Filthy blues guitar and moody vocals set the tone for the song and encapsulate the feelings of heaviness and restlessness that come with living in a world where connections both blossom and burn out so suddenly.

The track was mixed by renowned Canadian producer Brian Moncarz (Our Lady Peace, The Trews), and mastered by Joao Carvalho.

Let Your Love Burn Out

I wanna feel better, I wanna love bigger
I wanna feel something better than whatever I've missed
I wanna ride, I wanna die
I wanna feel something more than I can give

Well take it on me, take my heart on
Take it on just to stop it from starting up
Take your time, take a ride
Take it on

You've gotta love all the way down
You've gotta hurt all the way round
You've gotta love all the way down
And I can take you on

I take it on, I take it on me
I steal away just to feel you only
I wanna reap, I wanna sow
Darling I guess I'm just feeling lonely

You take it on then you take it away
You take it on then you take away

You've gotta love all the way down
You've gotta hurt all the way round
You've gotta love all the way down
And I can take you on

If you can't have it, what good is it holding on

Take It On

Howlin' Circus are a 3-piece London band merging garage rock, folk revival and blues. 

They started 2014 by releasing their first single When The Summer Comes through Big Sister Records. 

Their brand of feverish foot-stomping rock n roll, honed through several festival performances and sweaty club gigs, is bound to leave a lasting impression on the heart.

"A thrilling slice of dirty blues-rock that makes it easy to see why these three musicians are being hailed as 'Britain's answer to The Black Keys'" – Gigslutz

When The Summer Comes

Better or Worse (demo)

Howlin’ Circus is the brainchild of London-born Iraqi, Jafar Sandouk. A rock’n’roll heartbeat for these divisive times, Howlin’ Circus brings quiet introspection to a pulsing, Eastern-inspired psychedelic sound.

Since moving to Toronto, Howlin’ Circus has been forging a new path forward for rock music, disavowing the machismo of the past, and embracing some much-needed vulnerability and honesty to deliver high-energy, soul-bearing, performances. They’ve received critical acclaim, toured Europe, performed on live TV and handed out hundreds of pre-rolled joints at a show just weeks after Canada legalized weed.

In March 2019, Howlin’ Circus released their debut full-length album, Run The Wrong Way, a soundtrack to the chaos, political turmoil and rise in white supremacy that inspired Sandouk’s Brexit from the UK to Canada. Run The Wrong Way is a pounding, heart-filled thrill-ride challenging the listener to go against the grain, to not go gently. Sandouk says of the album: “This circus is for the outcasts. We’ve been pushed aside, gaslit, and had our futures sold to protect a dying ruling class. Run The Wrong Way is a moment to reflect on the horror, the beauty, and the sadness of breaking up with your country.”
