SELF-TITLED DEBUT ALBUM 2027
WAILING BANSHEE ANNOUNCE DEBUT ALBUM AND UK TOUR
We are thrilled to finally announce the release of our long-awaited self-titled debut album on 26th February 2027! It was recorded at Godhand Studios in Derby with producer Ben Gaines.
Al McKenzie says “we are so pleased to finally announce the debut album in all its glory to the world. This was an album that was heavily supported by our dedicated fan base and we’re so grateful to everyone that helped contribute towards making this album a reality.
The artwork is something particularly special this time round. Dan Goldsworthy did an absolutely fantastic job bringing our favourite Manchester venue to life!
There’s a great mix of songs on this album, some new and some old, we wanted to make sure there’s something for everyone on this release and can’t wait for you all to sink your teeth into it!”
Dani Louise continues “we’re so excited to finally be able to share our very first album with you all! We also have a string of very special tour dates to coincide with the release; some venues that really mean a lot to us and we love to play.
We have a very special show planned at Rebellion Manchester for the release date. Rebellion was where we played our first ever show so it seemed fitting to kick it off where it all started!”

The band are also set to hit the road this February, announcing a three-date UK run that will see the band headline venues in Manchester, Edinburgh and Newcastle as they celebrate the release of their self-titled debut album.
The tour opens on 26th February at Manchester’s iconic Rebellion venue, where the band will officially unveil the record with a headline performance and a night dedicated to bringing their music to the stage.
From Manchester, Wailing Banshee head north to Bannerman’s in Edinburgh on 27th February, before rounding off the run at Trillians in Newcastle on 28th February.
For a new band, getting a first album out into the world is a major milestone, and these three dates will give fans the chance to experience Wailing Banshee live across three of the UK’s best-known grassroots rock and metal venues. The Manchester show will feature special guest bands, to be announced soon, adding to what promises to be a memorable night for Heavy Metal fans.
Doors open at 6pm, and the band will be staying on after the Manchester show to meet fans, sign albums and merchandise, and pose for photographs.
