CARRIED BY WAVES
Cork City, County Cork
Last year was a busy one for CARRIED BY WAVES, and one marked by considerable progress; a debut show in January was closely followed by a performance at the Cork leg of the First Music Contact tour, and in August he was among the acts chosen to play at the Hard Working Class Heroes festival in Dublin. This run of shows was topped off in September by a performance at The Electric Picnic.
These performances gained critical acclaim with the likes of; Hot Press, Entertainment.ie, & Drop-D.ie, among others, and led to an artist profile segment on Phantom FM (Dublin), as well as regular airplay on Dan Hegarty's 2FM show. In addition to this, the year was rounded off by a recording session at 2FM for Dan Hegarty's show. 2012 began with both Hot Press & Heinekenmusic.ie tipping CARRIED BY WAVES as "one to watch", and with a debut album in the works (set for Summer release), and a string on nationwide performances planned for the coming months, it promises to be an exciting year.
PRESS
HOT PRESS: "There’s something totally beguiling about the musical musings of Carried By Waves, particularly the electronically doctored vocal of its mysterious conductor. Hot Press was front-row centre for one of the very first Carried By Waves live shows at last October’s Hard Working Class Heroes festival, and we can confirm that it was a dreamy, astral treat."
DAN HEGARTY: "If you haven't come across his beautifully crafted tunes, treat yourself, and prepare to be swept into their beauty and imagery."
BELIEVE IN SOUND: “Beautifully lush electronics are met with smooth vocal melodies throughout the Carried By Waves listening experience.... As a starting point check out the sublime track, ‘Haphazardly Amorous‘, and then proceed to delve further into the brilliance.
WE ARE NOISE.COM: Carried By Waves' songs are textured, layered and engrossing..They concoct a set of sounds that verge on euphoria. Close your eyes and Carried By Waves takes you into a dream, one that is over far too quickly.
