Hailing from the vibrant music scene of Liverpool, Circa Waves have been making waves in the indie rock world since their formation in 2013. Comprising frontman Kieran Shudall, guitarist Joe Falconer, bassist Sam Rourke, and drummer Colin Jones, the band quickly gained traction with their energetic live performances and catchy, anthemic tunes. Their journey began at the Liverpool Sound City music festival, where the members first crossed paths, leading to a shared passion for creating infectious indie rock.
Circa Waves' discography boasts five studio albums, with their latest release, "Death & Love, Pt. 1," hitting the shelves on January 31, 2025. The album is a testament to the band's evolution, blending influences from the indie music of the 2010s with their unique creative flair. Their previous album, "Never Going Under," released in 2023, further solidified their status as a formidable force in the indie rock genre.
The band's rise to fame was bolstered by early support from BBC Radio 1 DJ Zane Lowe, who played their demo for "Young Chasers" multiple times before they had even performed live. This early hype led to a whirlwind of shows, initially under the name Malkovich, before settling on Circa Waves. Their live performances are renowned for their high energy, making them a must-see act at festivals and venues alike.
With a dedicated fanbase and a reputation for delivering powerful live shows, Circa Waves continue to tour extensively, captivating audiences across the UK, EU, and US.
