gaws
Formed in Bath & based in Bristol, gaws are a post-punk band that combine the hallmarks
of blues & psychedelia to create their own unique sound that incorporates the frenetic
energy of The White Stripes, the unconventional song structures of Queens of the Stone Age
& the guitar work of The Blinders.
These influences create music that is most at home in a live setting, with the band
producing loud & emotionally intense live sets.
After a successful 2022 that included a packed-out headline show, slots for Dot to Dot &
Bristol Harbour Festivals and numerous support gigs that include a Permanent Creeps
London show, Porter's Cardiff and Thekla for DHP, gaws are looking to ascend throughout
2023 with upcoming single ‘Who Knows’, Bristol & London headline shows & a slot at Outer
Town Festival.
"An almighty post punky racket" - Joyzine
"Combining shrieking and electrifying vocals with inventive guitar passages... "Seen My
Face" is an animated & unusual track that the listener is sure to not forget in a hurry." - RGM
