After forming back in 2014, Heather Baron-Gracie, Ciara Doran, Hugo Silvani and Charlie Wood otherwise known as Pale Waves first made waves in alternative music in 2017 when the group released their debut single ‘There’s a Honey’ shortly after signing to record label Dirty Hit. Now Pale Waves are gearing up to reveal their full length follow up titled Who Am I? in 2021. 

Writing and releasing a new album during the pandemic caused challenges for the band, who began recording in Los Angeles, but had to return home to the UK and finish the album remotely. Lead single ‘Change’ received critical acclaim for being a voice for the LGBTQ+ community, of which Baron-Gracie and drummer Doran are members.

Tickets will go on presale on February 10th 2021 and on general sale on February 12th 2021 here.
