Hailing from North West UK, Crushed By Waves deliver their own brand of hard-hitting, no apologies, gritty alternative rock.

Since releasing their debut single ‘Ceiling’ in late 2020, Crushed By Waves have been showcasing their sound on the UK alternative rock scene - a cathartic blend of melodic verses, power-house breakdowns and anthemic choruses, which has seen the band steadily gain a growing fanbase and the attention of industry, with their first four singles receiving radio support from Kerrang! Radio and Planet Rock.

With several sold out hometown shows in Manchester, a run of UK shows with DFLM label mates Two Year Break, and appearances in 2023 at a number of festivals including Takedown, Hammerdown, Radar Festival and winning a coveted slot at the Boardie Takeover at Download’s 20th Edition from over 500 submissions, alongside brand new music released across the summer and amazing support from BBC Introducing, Crushed By Waves are hell bent on just getting their music into the faces of as many people as possible, grabbing the proverbial bull firmly by the metal horns and preparing for one hell of a ride.

“WGOA is all about keeping the faith, pushing through the hardest times, holding on, and never giving up, even if it kills us. When we see our music can bring a room full of strangers together, the energy in that room is worth dying for, it actually gives us life.”

Brace for impact, CBW are making waves. ‘Won’t Get Out Alive’ is the start of the band’s energised future.

“Rock n roll of the highest order from the guys in Crushed By Waves” – Alex Baker, Kerrang! Radio
