Wavers – Look What I Found LP

Description

Wavers is a huge-hearted, melodic, indie rock band influenced by D.IY. punk, beloved friends, changing seasons, and a world in decline. Jake writes complex melodic lead bass guitar, Charlie adds skillful drumming and soaring harmonies, Joshs guitar detonates controlled explosions all over the place, and Rosies vocals and indie pop compositions provide the warm, humanist center. The songs on their debut LP Look What I Found explore beloved friends and lovers, environments built and natural, seasonality, listening to music in cars, jumping in always-changing rivers etc. Some folks say they sound like one-off self-released 7s from 1995. This is raw indie-rock for punk kids with Discount, rather than Discharge, back patches.

Wavers began in summer 2021 when Jake, Josh and Charlie wrote and demoed five songs and sent them to new friend Rosie, who wrote vocals and lyrics within the week. Those tracks became their self-titled EP, released by Musical Fanzine in summer 2024. After three years of regularly practicing and numerous gigs in and around their hometown of Olympia, WA, they recorded Look What I Found in fall 2024 with Olympia legend Capt. Tripps Ballsington at High Command, whose credits include Broken Water, Milk Music, Gun Outfit, Physique, Pigeon Pit (whose Reach Aound Records is co-releasing Look What I Found.)
