THE WAKE

FORMED IN 2019, THE WAKE ARE A FIVE PIECE BAND FROM NIAGARA FALLS CANADA. THE WAKE IS A BAND OF LONGTIME FRIENDS AND MUSICAL PEERS THAT HAD PLAYED IN SEPARATE PROJECTS OVER MORE THAN 20 YEARS IN THEIR LOCAL SCENE, FINALLY COMING TOGETHER WITH A DESIRE TO CREATE SOMETHING REAL AND POWERFUL. ROOTED IN SOUTHERN ROCK, CLASSIC HARD ROCK, SWAMPY BLUES AND GOTHIC AMERICANA, THE WAKE HAVE CREATED A FRESH, UNIQUE STYLE THAT EMBRACES THE RICHNESS OF THEIR MUSICAL INFLUENCES.

LYRICALLY THE BAND DOESN’T PLAY INTO “SAFE” OR GENERIC LYRICAL TRAPPINGS OR THEMES. INSTEAD THE LYRICS ARE RAW, VISCERAL INSIGHTS INTO A LIFE ENGULFED WITHIN THE DARKNESS AND EXCESS THAT MOST FEAR TO EXPLORE.
