‘the singer-songwriter has found some of his own {magic} in a subtle indie-folk template, unfurling his own fragile voice with confidence.’ – Billboard
‘On Come June, Rowland demonstrates a deep understanding of a kind of indie folk sound…a soft and optimistic record, well-studied and warm.’ – Associated Press
‘a sweet, slow and swaying love song imbued with longing and a looming discontent. Rowland’s quiet lull floats above a bevy of guitars and organs, filling the atmosphere with an acoustic wistfulness.’ – Paste
‘a refreshing, refulgent piece of songwriting, one marked by his ease of touch. Graceful, there’s a sense of LA lingering in the background, it’s pop lore and Laurel Canyon heritage.’ – Clash
‘There’s a warmth to it that suggests comfort; a carefully-constructed quiet to contrast with the chaos outside.’ (4/5 stars) – DIY

Acclaimed California & UK-based musician and GRAMMY-winning songwriter Mitch Rowland releases his debut album Come June today via Erskine Records/Giant Music. Rowland found himself working at a pizza joint when he was given the opportunity to write with Harry Styles for his self-titled debut. That led to the two being long-term collaborators, yielding hits like ‘Meet Me in the Hallway,’ ‘Watermelon Sugar’ and ‘Golden,’ a place for Rowland in Styles’ touring band, and the distinction of being the first artist signed to Styles’ label, Erskine.
After years of helping others find and refine their voice, Mitch Rowland is ready to share his own with this record. Come June features contributions from incredible players including producer and multi-instrumentalist Rob Schnapf (Beck, Elliott Smith), bassist Jerry Borgé (Ziggy Marley, Jonathan Wilson, Jackson Browne), engineer and musician Matt Schuessler (Kurt Vile, Cat Power), bandmate and wife Sarah Jones (Harry Styles), as well as Ben Harper and Harry Styles himself.
Rowland will celebrate the release of Come June tonight with a show at Los Angeles’ famed The Troubadour, which sold out in less than 45 minutes, and a full-band WXPN Free At Noon members performance in Philadelphia next Friday 13 October. Rob Schnapf will also make a rare live appearance at the LA show, alongside Jones and Schuessler. Schnapf, who has steered clear of playing live for the last 20 years, is coming out of performance retirement thanks to his love for Come June.

My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
