New album Heartbeat was produced and mixed with TJ Allen
(Bat For Lashes, Portishead, Hannah Peel, Anna Calvi) and
features vocals from Imogen Williams of Imogen and the Knife.
This release marks a significant musical evolution for the duo,
incorporating their soundtrack experience and returning to the
collaborative process that shaped their debut record.
AVAWAVES creative approach is grounded in live performance, crafting
compositions by immersing themselves in the emotions of the
space – a process challenged by lockdowns and physical
distance. Drawing inspiration from visual elements, the duo
creates soundscapes that evoke colours, scenes, and stories,
akin to scores for an imaginary film. Anna and Aisling believe
instrumental music provides a universal language that invites
listeners to engage fully, embracing vulnerability and heightened
individual emotions. For them, this openness to interpretation is
where true meaning lies.
Previous support from BBC 6Music, BBC Radio 3, Clash, The
Independent, PROG, Louder Than War, Wonderland. + more.
