Graywave is the brainchild of West Midlands based multi-instrumentalist Jess Webberley. The first single of the project, ‘Afternoon Escapism’ was released April 2019, and the project has since gone on to include a number of singles and a 5 track EP. Experienced live, Graywave can be described as a grungey, dreamy wall of sound.
Taking influence from the likes of Men I Trust, Slowdive, Crumb, and Widowspeak, Graywave aims to create music to make you feel as though you are elsewhere. The combination of dreamy chords, shoegaze inspired guitar leads and powerful vocals creates a distinctive, recognisable sound.
Graywave has been featured on the Brum Radio A-List multiple times and has had radio play from BBC Introducing. Recent single ‘Before’ has been their most successful song to date, landing a feature on an editorial Spotify playlist as well as receiving glowing reviews and radio play globally. The artist has recently signed to Australian label ‘False Peak Records’ and released ‘Planetary Shift’ on 10” vinyl. The artist will be recording a new EP at the end of July, and they state that this will be the beginning of taking the music in a heavier, darker direction.
