Inhaler Talks New Kid Harpoon-Produced Album: ‘We Know What We Want Now’


Irish band Inhaler discuss collaborating with super-producer Kid Harpoon and recent Grammy-winning songwriter Amy Allen on their new album.

The Irish quartet, made up of Eli Hewson (vocals, son of U2 ’s Bono), Ryan McMahon (drums), Bobby Keating (bass), and Josh Jenkinson (guitars), has welcomed a new influx of young, passionate fans into their world, no doubt helped by their support slots on megatours with Arctic Monkeys and Harry Styles at their respective stadium shows. Open Wide was produced by Kid Harpoon, who had a huge hand in the easy-going sound of Styles’ Grammy-winning LP Harry’s House, as well as the One Direction alum’s 2019 album Fine Line. Speaking from Amsterdam while on the press trail, the band discusses the input from Kid Harpoon and Allen, the ever-shifting indie scene, global success for Irish artists and more.
