In the spirit of music discovery which guides WFUV, our DJs offer their favorite new artists on the cusp of making it to the next level.
Often, when you see a live band, you might focus on one, maybe two of its members. Not so with Canada's Weaves: each of the four members is mesmerizing.
The drummer, Spencer Cole, is a beast behind the kit; Zach Bines effortlessly pulls off intricate bass lines that take the songs into unexpectedly funky directions; and Morgan Waters is an extremely inventive guitarist. Finally, we come to frontwoman Jasmyn Burke, a mesmerizing performer with an unusual cadence to her singing, making you lean forward to decipher her witty and astute lyrics.
A debut album is expected to be released later this year.
