Little Barrie

Little Barrie–singer/guitarist Barrie Cadogan, bassist Lewis Wharton, and drummer Tony Coote–are touring the UK, Europe & the USA in support of their acclaimed sixth studio album Gravity Freeze, out now via Easy Eye Sound. Full itinerary is here and tickets are on-sale now.
Gravity Freeze arrived in late May to rave reviews via Pitchfork, All Music, Aquarium Drunkard (Best of the Year So Far), Uncut (8/10 stars), Mojo (4/5 stars), Guitarist, and Shindig! (4/5 stars), as well as playlisting support from Spotify’s All New Rock, NPR Music (New Music Friday), and CREEM Magazine, while frontman Cadogan was featured in Premier Guitar’s Rig Rundown series.

Gravity Freeze is the first released solely under the band’s own name since the death of drummer Virgil Howe in September 2017. The LP follows more than two decades of activity that have established the band as a key force in UK psychedelic rock and soul. Following Howe’s passing, Cadogan and Wharton placed the future of the band on hold. After initial plans to resume playing were disrupted by the Covid-19 pandemic, the pair began collaborating with long-time friend Malcolm Catto (The Heliocentrics); this partnership resulted in two albums, Quatermass Seven (2020) and Electric War, released on Easy Eye Sound in April 2025.
