Graywave is the solo musical venture of multi-instrumentalist Jess Webberley. The first single of the project, ‘After-noon Escapism’ was released April 2019. Taking influence from the likes of Men I Trust, Slowdive, Crumb, and Widow-speak, Graywave aims to create music to make you feel as though you are elsewhere. The combination of dreamy chords, shoegaze inspired guitar leads and powerful vocals creates a distinctive, recognisable sound. Just a couple of years in and Graywave has played a number of shows in the West Midlands alongside the likes of Slow Crush, Petal and VENUS, as well as making it down to Bristol. The addition of a full band for live performances helps convey the impactful sound that can be heard on record. The first re-lease of 2020 [June] ‘With Me’ has had a wealth of radio play, including making it onto the Brum Radio A List and being played twice on Coventry & Warwickshire BBC Introducing. The track has also been subject to some great reviews from publications all over the globe.

The most recent release ‘Like Heaven [December 2020] has already had radio play, some fantastic reviews and has been added to a number of playlists. The most notable recent achievement for Graywave has been a nomination for Best Solo Female Artist of the Year by Brum Radio.Next for Graywave is the release of ‘Before’ [Jan 15th], the second single off of her debut EP ‘Planetary Shift’.
