Holy Wave is a psychedelic rock band hailing from El Paso, Texas, though they later relocated to the more musically-infused landscape of Austin. The band is known for its hypnotic blend of garage rock, reverb-soaked melodies, and expansive psychedelic soundscapes. Since forming in 2008, Holy Wave has been part of the modern revival of 1960s psychedelic music, infusing their tunes with a contemporary twist that resonates with a broad audience.

With a respectable catalog of work, Holy Wave's evolution is evident across their releases as they've fine-tuned their sound with each project. Noteworthy albums like "Relax" (2014) and "Freaks of Nurture" (2016) have contributed to their reputation as architects of modern psych-rock, utilizing experimental and ambient interludes to immerse the listener. Their later works, including "Adult Fear" (2018) and "Interloper" (2020), show a maturation in their craft, continuing to earn them a spot in the psychedelic scene both at home and abroad. Holy Wave maintains an active presence in live performances, exemplified by their "Levitation Sessions (Live)," which showcase the quintet's compelling stage presence and ability to engage concertgoers in their trance-inducing groove.
