About the Artist
Circa Waves, formed in Liverpool in 2013 by Kieran Shudall, emerged from the ashes of his previous garage bands with a fresh, melodic rock sound that quickly captured the attention of indie music fans. Their live performances are a vibrant mix of propulsive energy and catchy hooks, often drawing comparisons to the Strokes and the Vaccines, yet they maintain a distinct British charm. Fans often recall the band's early days, when Shudall's decision to "knuckle down" on music led to a rapid rise fueled by infectious anthems like "T-Shirt Weather." Their shows are known for their raw enthusiasm and a sense of communal joy, with Shudall's heartfelt lyrics about personal growth and societal concerns resonating deeply, especially in later albums influenced by his experiences of fatherhood and climate anxiety. The band’s evolution from youthful exuberance to a more nuanced, sophisticated sound is palpable live, making each concert a journey through their dynamic career. And yes, they do have that knack for making you feel like you’re part of an inside joke, even if you’re just there for the music—because who doesn’t want to be in on the secret that a good T-shirt can change your day?
