Howling Bells are an Australian indie rock band formed by siblings Juanita and Joel Stein, known for their dark, cinematic sound and striking mix of indie, alt-rock and dream-pop influences.

Originally starting out in Sydney before relocating to London, the band made a powerful impression with their self-titled debut album Howling Bells (2006) — a brooding, atmospheric record built around Juanita’s haunting vocals and vivid, emotional storytelling. Tracks like “Setting Sun” and “Blessed Night” showcased their flair for moody soundscapes wrapped in rich melodies, earning widespread critical acclaim and a loyal following.
