Narrow Head is an American alternative metal[2] band from Dallas, Texas. The group was founded by vocalist Jacob Duarte in Dallas, but the band is now based in Houston.[3]

History

Narrow Head formed in 2013 and released their debut album, Satisfaction, in 2016.[4] By this time, the group's membership had coalesced into the trio of Jacob Duarte on vocals, William Menjivar on guitar, and Carson Wilcox on drums.[4] In 2018, the group released the single "Bulma" and did a tour of the western United States.[5] In 2020, Narrow Head signed with Run For Cover Records and released the singles "Night Tryst", "Stuttering Stanley, and "Hard to Swallow" in preparation for their sophomore album, 12th House Rock.[6][7] Run for Cover reissued Satisfaction in 2021 on vinyl.

On June 12, 2022, the band released the stand-alone single "T.W.I.N." through Run for Cover Records.[8]

On November 7, 2022, the group released "Moments of Clarity" through Run for Cover Records as the debut single for their upcoming album Moments of Clarity.[9] On December 13, 2022, another single from the album, entitled “Gearhead”, was released. The album was released on February 10, 2023.[10]
