The Pastel Waves are a Medway-based indie band who fuse their collective influences of New Wave, Indie and Brit Pop.

With a full line-up in 2017, it was actually 2015 that Rob Percy and Chris Parsons (previous members of Medway band Speedwell) began writing new material together. Soon after, they knew they was onto something with this new project, and thus invited Joe Liste Romero and Mike Grigson (previous members of Medway band The Ambience) to join to add drums and vocals to the songs’ bare bones.

Their debut album ‘All Things To All People’ was released in March 2019 on Trouserphonic Records, with a follow-up digital single ‘Ten’, and the CD EP ‘I Hate Myself For Wanting It’ in May 2020.

In April 2021, the band released ‘The Influencers EP’ on vinyl via Spinout Nuggets, with four strong tracks, each receiving enough attention to force them to continue recording.

The band released their second album, ‘Back In The Land Of The Living’, last year, also receiving much interest.

This limited 7” lathe cut single (cut by Russ Wilkins – of The Pop Rivets, Thee Milkshakes, Lord Rochester, The Mindreaders, etc) includes the last two tracks that The Pastel Waves recorded at Medway’s legendary Ranscombe Studios, prior to it’s relocation.

Released on Spinout Nuggets, limited to 50 lathe cut copies, this will be available via the label and the band only.
