Listen to 'What Normal Was' out now: billyhowerdel.lnk.to/WhatNormalWas

After all of these years, Billy Howerdel is ready to introduce himself. The vocalist, multi-instrumentalist, producer, composer, A Perfect Circle co-founder and guitarist projects facets of his personality onto a reflective ethereal canvas of living and breathing soundscapes. On his proper full-length solo debut, What Normal Was [Alchemy Recordings/Rise Records/BMG], he inhabits a space that’s reverent of his past, present, and future simultaneously.

“This record was going to come out under ‘Ashes Divide’ he explains. “As time passed, I felt like this sound was closer to what I’ve always wanted to do. Maynard gave me a little bit of advice. He encouraged me to use my voice front-and-center. So, this album is 100% me using my voice and register. I think it tells a better story of who I am.”

Ultimately, this album is the best way to get to know Billy.
