Critic Consensus
Based on 87 concert reviews, the critic consensus is that Wavves is rated as a mediocre live performer, with shows that lack substantial critical acclaim. Wavves concert reviews describe live shows and performances as psychedelic, energetic, chaotic, noisy, and exciting.
Nathan Williams, under the name Wavves, is a noise pop musician and landlord based in Los Angeles, California. He released his self-titled debut LP in 2008 and has since gained notable media attention from the internet, and other areas including Pitchfork and ABC News.
Has Performed With
Unknown Mortal Orchestra, Twin Peaks, Sures, King Tuff, Fidlar, Best Coast
This goes without saying but having known the band since early childhood and never having had a chance to see them live, this was an exciting opportunity. Judging from the age of the crowd it was a lot of people's first Wavves show too.
In celebration, their first, eponymous album has just been re-released as a special vinyl issue – an appropriately retro gesture for a band inspired especially by ’60s music.
