About Pale Waves
Pale Waves are an English rock band from Manchester, formed in 2014. The band was formed when lead singer and guitarist Heather Baron-Gracie met drummer Ciara Doran while attending university in Manchester. Guitarist Hugo Silvani and bassist Charlie Wood joined the group, completing the lineup. Their early work has been described as 80s-inspired indie rock or synth-pop, while their second and third albums incorporate elements of the pop-punk genre. After signing with Dirty Hit in 2017, Pale Waves released their debut single, 'There's a Honey,' followed by 'Television Romance.' In 2018, the band ranked fifth in the BBC Sound of 2018 poll and received the NME Under the Radar Award at the NME Awards. Their debut EP, 'All the Things I Never Said,' was released in February 2018. They have released several albums, including 'My Mind Makes Noises' (2018), 'Who Am I?' (2021), 'Unwanted' (2022), and 'Smitten' (2024).
