What do you get when you mix the goth aesthetic of The Cure with the pop sensibilities of 80s-sounding acts the likes of The 1975?  Answer - Pale Waves. 

Possibly one of the most successful groups to come out of Manchester in recent times, the four-piece, founded by lead singer and guitarist, Heather Baron-Gracie and drummer Ciara Doran, has taken the world by storm with their unique melancholic brand of synth-tinged indie-pop. 

Having toured their catalogue extensively over the past four years - including albums, My Mind Makes Noises and Who Am I? - performing at festivals such as Kendal Calling, the Neighbourhood Weekender and Leeds and Reading Festival, the band are once again out on the road. Due to land back in England towards the end of the month, once completing their tour of America with Aussie pop band, 5 Seconds of Summer, Pale Waves are then confirmed to make a live appearance at Newcastle venue, Central Park.

Catch them performing alongside Bears in Trees and other yet-to-be-announced special guests on Wednesday 17th August. Tickets on the link below...
