"A dose of helter-skelter outlaw energy from two of the best in the biz" - Clash Magazine

“A ram-jam barrage of 50s rock ‘n’ roll mania, shot through with punk venom” - Classic Rock

"A breath of fresh air…reminds me of Motorhead. What the world needs now!" - Chrissie Hynde

His Lordship, one of the most explosive and exciting live acts to emerge from the UK in years, come flying out of the traps with the announcement of their debut self-titled album, out January 12th, 2024 - produced by David Wrench and Tchad Blake (Arctic Monkeys, Black Keys).

A tour de force of twelve frenetic, frenzied, rapturous tracks, the album will also include their latest offering ‘Jackie Works For The NHS’ - a monster garage rock anthem with a chorus that will blow the roof off venues across the country when they take to the road in November. Totalling seven shows, the tour will conclude in what will be a simply wild night in the capital at London’s Garage on November 17th.

"England 2023. Our beloved NHS is being dismantled piece by piece,” the band explain. “Jackie lives on our block. Jackie works for the NHS. We love Jackie. God save the NHS.”

A maximum rock’n’roll trio conceived during lockdown to blow the cobwebs away and remind us of what music has been missing, the band are made up of the powerhouse duo of James Walbourne (The Pretenders, The Pogues, The Rails) and Kristoffer Sonne (Chrissie Hynde, Willie Nelson), the band's first single ‘All Cranked Up’ hit the 6 Music B-List last summer, and today sees the release of its follow up 'Buzzkill’ - an angular, twisted ear worm produced by David Wrench (Courtney Barnett, XX, Frank Ocean) - listen here.

His Lordship sold out their debut UK tour in July, and then joined Jason Isbell on a sell out European tour culminating with a roof raising show at London’s Eventim Apollo. To coincide with the new single the band headed out on their biggest headline tour to date, taking in 12 cities, including a sold-out headline show at London’s Lafayette in April this year.
