Pale Waves
Pale Waves are an English rock band from Manchester, formed in 2014. It was founded originally as Creek when lead singer and guitarist Heather Baron-Gracie met drummer Ciara Doran while attending university in Manchester. The other members are guitarist Hugo Silvani and bassist Charlie Wood, completing the lineup. Pale Waves's early work is often described as 80s-inspired indie rock or synth-pop; their second and third albums, however, owe more to the pop-punk genre. After signing a record deal with Dirty Hit in 2017, Pale Waves released their debut single, " There's a Honey", followed by " Television Romance". In 2018, the band were ranked fifth in the BBC Sound of 2018 poll and won the ''NME'' Under the Radar Award at the NME Awards.

Television Romance
"Television Romance" is a song by the English indie pop band Pale Waves, released on 16 August 2017 to promote their debut album, ''My Mind Makes Noises'' (2018). The song, written by Heather Baron-Gracie and Ciara Doran and produced by Matthew Healy and George Daniel of the 1975, was inspired by an incident in which Baron-Gracie had to bluntly rebuff a hopeful suitor who was oblivious to her disinterest. The band also released a video for the song; directed by Healy and Samuel Burgess-Johnson, it features the band performing the song in a Manchester flat. On 10 November 2017, "Television Romance" was re-released with the band's " There's a Honey" as a double A-side single by Dirty Hit. The single received largely positive reviews from music critics, with many applauding the band's sound and the song's catchiness (although some criticism was aimed at the song's similarity to the band's previous single, "There's a Honey"). At the end of 2017, '' Marie Claire'' named the single ...

Heather Baron-Gracie
Heather Baron-Gracie (born 17 January 1995) is an English singer, songwriter and musician, best known as the lead guitarist and vocalist for the indie rock band Pale Waves. Life and career Early life Heather Baron-Gracie was born in Preston, Lancashire. Around the time she started secondary school, Baron-Gracie experienced a debilitating back injury: "I didn’t have an accident. It just happened," she told the ''Evening Standard'' in 2018. "I was complaining for ages that my back was in pain but people just thought I was just growing. I was doing sports with a broken back for ages." The injury which was severe enough that Baron-Gracie required spinal fusion surgery very nearly paralysed her, and it forced her to miss an entire year of school. It was during her recovery that Baron-Gracie got deeply invested in music: "I was always into usic... But when that happened, I was staying in my house and wrote music loads. And ever since that, this is what I want to do." Baron-Grac ...

Manchester () is a city in Greater Manchester, England. It had a population of 552,000 in 2021. It is bordered by the Cheshire Plain to the south, the Pennines to the north and east, and the neighbouring city of Salford to the west. The two cities and the surrounding towns form one of the United Kingdom's most populous conurbations, the Greater Manchester Built-up Area, which has a population of 2.87 million.

Unwanted (album)
''Unwanted '' is the third studio album by English rock band Pale Waves. It was released on 12August 2022 by the independent record label Dirty Hit. The record was produced by Zakk Cervini and recorded in Los Angeles. Production for the record began roughly half a year after Pale Waves released their second album, ''Who Am I?'' (2021), with the quick turnaround due in large part to the COVID-19 pandemic, which prevented the band from touring. Indebted to the pop-punk genre, ''Unwanted'' was intended to be heavier and more aggressive than the band's previous work. Heather Baron-Gracie (the band's lead singer and guitarist) co-wrote all of the album's songs with a close group of musical collaborators, including Ciara Doran, Kelsi Luck, Cervini, Sam de Jong, Whakaio Taahi, Andrew Goldstein, and Drew Fulk. Many of the lyrics on ''Unwanted'' discuss darker topics, including anger, jealousy, substance use, depression, and suicide. Musically, the record was inspired by a variety ...

AllMusic
AllMusic (previously known as All Music Guide and AMG) is an American online music database. It catalogs more than three million album entries and 30 million tracks, as well as information on musicians and bands. Initiated in 1991, the database was first made available on the Internet in 1994. AllMusic is owned by RhythmOne. History AllMusic was launched as ''All Music Guide'' by Michael Erlewine, a "compulsive archivist, noted astrologer, Buddhist scholar and musician". He became interested in using computers for his astrological work in the mid-1970s and founded a software company, Matrix, in 1977. In the early 1990s, as CDs replaced LPs as the dominant format for recorded music, Erlewine purchased what he thought was a CD of early recordings by Little Richard. After buying it he discovered it was a "flaccid latter-day rehash". Frustrated with the labeling, he researched using metadata to create a music guide. In 1990, in Big Rapids, Michigan, he founded ''All Music Guide' ...
