Ben Howard Tea Towel & Bag MSF MAP

Award winning musician Ben Howard has created this range to support the vital work of Médecins Sans Frontières (UK) (MSF) and Medical Aid for Palestinians (MAP).

Ben donated all merch profits of $65,700 from his ‘Is It?’ Tour in summer 2024. Amongst his designs was a one off collaboration with the Tatreez Collective and the Tirazain Initiative, using the traditional Palestinian embroidered artwork designed by Zain Masri.

This month we will see Ben Howard celebrating ten years of his critically acclaimed UK number one, second album, “I Forget Where We Were” with a 13-date live run of the UK. The tour marks the first time Ben has revisited an album retrospectively, and will perform it through in its entirety.

To coincide with the tour’s announcement, a new 10th anniversary crystal clear, double-vinyl edition of the record will be made available, featuring alternative artwork to its original release.
