Tides of Man is an American post-rock band hailing from Tampa, Florida, that has carved its unique niche in the expansive genre of rock music. Since their formation in 2008, the band has undergone a significant evolution in sound. Initially known for their post-hardcore tendencies, as evidenced in releases like "Empire Theory" (2009) and "Dreamhouse" (2010), their departure from vocal-centric compositions evolved following the amicable split with their original lead singer in 2010. The band then shifted towards a purely instrumental sound that is both expansive and emotionally resonant.

With the release of "Young and Courageous" in 2014, Tides of Man established themselves as a powerful force in the instrumental rock world, showcasing their ability to craft cinematic and moving soundscapes devoid of vocals. The subsequent albums, including "Every Nothing" (2018) and offerings like "Static Hymn" and "Naked Words / Sacred Mouth," further solidified their reputation as maestros of the instrumental genre. Their atmospheric build-ups and intricate guitar work have become a signature of the Tides of Man sound, engendering both critical and fan acclaim. The band's reputation for engaging live performances was further cemented by their "Tides of Man on Audiotree Live" sessions, proving their music's potency on stage. With each release, they continue to push the boundaries of their sound, crafting rich, layered compositions that resonate with fans of post-rock and instrumental music alike.
