ANNOUNCED IN FIRST WAVE OF
ARTISTS FOR SXSW 2025
UK TOUR WITH KIDS IN GLASS
HOUSES STARTS SATURDAY (NOV 2 ND )
HIMALAYAS have released the video for their new single ‘What If…?’ out now via Nettwerk Music Group.
The eerie video captures an impending apocalypse being brewed up in the lab as the Cardiff four-piece perform the punchy rock track which has been produced by Pete Hutchings (Royal Blood, Nothing But Thieves, Skindred).
Regarding the video the band say, “With the ‘What If…?’ video we wanted to create a sense of discomfort and really capture the ever-present feeling of life going wrong. The disturbing nature of the video really encapsulates the feeling of dread and fear
within the song.” ‘What If…?’ reflects personal and global problems, while also accepting how little the individual can do to influence the path they are on. It deals with the anxieties of our time and concludes that in order not to be overwhelmed by feelings of helplessness and detachment, the only option is to stop caring and accept the uncertainty of the road ahead.
HIMALAYAS are on a dizzying upward trajectory since the release of their debut album From Hell To Here in 2023, which quickly proved them to be a vital new band in the UK rock scene. It has achieved over 93 million streams and led them to work with the very upper echelons of rock royalty, including co-writing with AC/DC’s Brian Johnson on the recent single ‘V.O.V’, while also being asked to support Foo Fighters at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium earlier this summer.
HIMALAYAS are no strangers to big stages, and prior to supporting Foo Fighters they have performed to capacity arena crowds with Manic Street Preachers and Stereophonics. On December 14 th 2024 they will also be supporting Those Damn Crows at Cardiff Arena.
Ahead of this HIMALAYAS will be touring across the UK with Kids In Glass Houses this month which kicks off this Saturday (Nov 2 nd ) in Birmingham with full dates listed below.
Looking ahead to next year, HIMALAYAS have just been announced in the first wave of artists for SXSW 2025 in Austin, Texas.
Fans can expect more touring news from HIMALAYAS to follow soon.
