STRATEGIC ARTIST ADVOCACY SINCE 1997
I never even thought of this reference, but I love it. Ron Hart at Rock and Roll Globe reports: "In the spirit of another music duo from Philly named Hall & Oates, Later Fortune are expertly adept at keeping the soul of their sacred city alive in their distinctive sound."
The duo of Chet Delcampo and Heyward Howkins drop the video for their "Lateral To The Devil" single today, beautifully directed by Julie Casper Roth.
WXPN writes that Later Fortune’s "stirring” new single “is an eerily calm track with ambient electronic layers over warm acoustic guitar, and airy, effortless vocals."
Many thanks out to WXPN's The Key for the kind words in its premiere coverage of "Lateral To The Devil," the A-side of the upcoming single from Later Fortune (aka Chet Delcampo and Heyward Howkins), out this Friday, February 11.

Shot using two VHS cameras, Later Fortune’s “ransom note” video for the synth-y cover of David Bowie's 𝘠𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘨 𝘈𝘮𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘯𝘴 cut "Win" premieres today! The duo of Chet Delcampo and Heyward Howkins are sharing the clip and chatting with MAGNET Magazine about it this morning. Click for your life!
“Lateral To The Devil” b/w/ “Win,” the upcoming single from Later Fortune, arrives Feb. 11th, 2022.
Later Fortune’s cover of David Bowie’s “Win” is over at my favorite cover songs site Cover Me as one of their "Best Cover Songs of January."
"The duo of Chet Delcampo and Heyward Hawkins, collaborators with Karl Blau & War on Drugs band members, wrap a hazy gauze around this Bowie deep cut, bringing in Depeche Mode influences."
Good day, brave souls of the internet! While you are consuming your coffee and Wordle (you know you do it!), please click on over to our friends at Glide Magazine for the premiere of "Win," a synthy cover of the David Bowie deep cut by Later Fortune aka Philly-based musicians Chet Delcampo and Heyward Howkins.
Glide says it's "a truly stirring rendition that would make Bowie smile." If it would make Bowie smile, then it's bound to make you feel some kind of way, yes? I don't know if Wordle accepts proper nouns, but with Bowie being five letters, perhaps all of this can make some kind of sense.

Their names alone spark curiosity: Later Fortune is the Philly-based duo of Chet Delcampo and Heyward Howkins.
Both are busy musicians and songwriters working at the front, back, and on stage, as well as appearing on each other’s recordings. This makes their upcoming two-song “Lateral To The Devil” single (out Feb. 11th, 2022) a rare thing. The previous Later Fortune release dropped three years ago, but patience pays.
Even at a mere two tracks and even with one being a cover (David Bowie’s Young Americans album cut “Win,” which Bowie biographer David Buckley called “one of the most gorgeous melodies Bowie has ever written”), it’s enough to underscore the taste and talent that results from decades of adulting in music.
