Night Song by Howl Quartet
Howl Quartet is an award winning UK based project whose dynamic, expressive music focuses heavily on storytelling through melodic composition and improvisation. Following the successes of their first two studio releases, Howl Quartet’s third album, 'Night Song', is their most personal work yet. After almost a decade of collaboration, Howl Quartet have carefully developed a sound that has an innate freedom and creative intensity that is on full display throughout 'Night Song'.
