In Waves have no interest in adhering to boundaries. Inspired by a diverse set of influences spanning the past six decades while taking a cue from alt pop contemporaries such as Kasabian and The Neighbourhood, the UK band’s music is a sonic labyrinth. From energetic breakbeats to rumbling 808 basslines to occasional indie swagger, there’s something new at every turn. Anthemic yet introspective lyrics place their agenda front and centre: whoever you are, whatever you’re going through — it’s okay.
