The Dowling Poole is formed by multi instrumentalists Willie Dowling (formerly of Jackdaw4 and Honeycrack) and Jon Poole (formerly of Cardiacs).
Their debut Top 20 Indie album 'Bleak Strategies' was released on April 1, 2014 through the Pledgemusic platform.[1] The album saw commercial release on August 11, 2014 through 369 Music.[2]
Album reviews were universally positive with Dom Lawson of Classic Rock Magazine stating that Bleak Strategies is "Flawless and exhilarating, this demands to be the soundtrack to all of our waking summer dreams[3]" and Powerpopaholic writing "This is an essential 'do-not-miss' album, that makes my top ten list for 2014".[4] The Sun said, “This awesome pairing results in glorious and slightly unhinged psychedelic pop rock”, and Mojo hailed, “A classic British rock album heavy on power pop smarts”.
The group released the single 'Rebecca Receiving'on February 19th 2016. The single is taken from the forthcoming album 'One Hyde Park, to be released April 8th 2016.
