To The Waves

about

To the Waves is a five-piece rock band that features ex-members of such Northwest post-punk notables as Polecat, Leuko, and Pipefitter. Evoking the likes of Drive like Jehu, Jawbox, the Jesus Lizard, Refused, and Fugazi, the band fuses melody, dynamics, and passion to create their distinctive and jagged sound. Hailing from Seattle, Tacoma, and Olympia, WA, the band formed in the winter of 2006 after drummer Geoff North (Pipefitter, Polecat) and guitarist Ryan Malley recorded a three-song demo to recruit a new singer. Longtime friend Jesse Fox (Polecat, Leuko, Seaweed, The Bangs) heard the demo and immediately decided to join the band. It was after only a few practices with Geoff and Ryan that Jesse called upon his friends and former band mates Cheryl Hooper (Polecat, Leuko, Black Betty, Doris) and Cornish-trained keyboardist Kelly Wyse (Leuko) to complete the lineup. The band spent the summer of 2007 at Red Room Recording in Seattle , where they recorded their self-titled debut. The resulting 10-track album was recorded, mixed, and mastered with the able guidance of Chris Common (These Arms are Snakes). The album also features guest appearances by Chris and the vocal talent of the mighty Dave Verellen (Botch, Roy). To the Waves has received consistent specialty show rotation on Seattle 's KNDD (107.7 FM "The End"), since their demo was leaked in September 2007. They also performed live on The End in December 2007 and recently played their first show to a sold-out crowd at
