HIS NAME IS DOLORES
BAND BIO
His Name is Dolores (HNID) are a four-piece metal band based in the North West of England.
Formed in 2024 by longtime friends vocalist Will Pascoe (aka “Princess”) and bassist Connor Lawler, the band were soon joined by guitarist Sam Franklin and drummer Andy Craig.
HNID’s sound is inspired by the early deathcore/metalcore bands vocalist Will grew up on in California, but also has undeniable elements of modern-day hardcore and street metal.
HNID released their debut EP Cordycep in 2024, with tracks covering topics from posers and time wasters (”Step the Fuck up”) and that one person you can’t get out of your head (“Cordycep”), to the collective obsession we have with hiding from things that might hurt us (“Triggered”).
Lyrically, Will draws from deep-rooted anger at the world and hatred of both himself and others, with lyrics often inspired by words he screams in his sleep.
The band name tends to raise curiosity and confusion. His Name is Dolores. What’s it all about?
As the band put it: “We like to let people decide what HNID means for themselves. But if you feel weird saying it, or refuse to say it right, you might want to look at the prejudices you hold.”
Off the back of a run of shows in early 2026, including being a part of two sold-out hometown dates, the band have their sights set high. With upcoming appearances at Dark Reign Festival and a slot supporting Hacktivist this summer, HNID are just getting started.
