Famous people who like Howling Bells....

[blade]

We know about the bands they've toured with, particularly Gary Lightbody (Snow Patrol), Chris Martin (Coldplay) and Ronnie Vanucci (The Killers), but which other 'celebs' list Howling Bells amongst their record collection?

Well, there's British comic actor James Corden:

There's Scottish singer/songwriter KT Tunstall:

There's former Chelsea, Everton, Tranmere and Scotland winger, the right-on Pat Nevin:

Says Pat, "Last time I saw Howling Bells there was a moment where it was an almost Mary Chain wall of noise - the whole band was was rocking, the guitarist was leaning back going ‘we’ve nailed this’. Just perfection."

Anyone know any others?

Cool thread - though I don't know most of the people on the list. I think I have someone in mind I can add but I'm still trying to remember who that was.

I would think Gwyneth Paltrow would, I mean she is married to Chris Martin and he thinks alot of them, but who knows.

Oh! I forgot she liked them!

She even made some remarkable comments about Juanita's voice and how great the first album was a few years ago ;D
