About: Holy Wave
Generating thick
layers of sound that twist and turn through a complex labyrinth of reverb and
echo, Holy Wave are a garage-psych band from Austin, Texas who uphold the Lone
Star State's long-standing reputation for top-notch lysergic sounds. Featuring
multi-instrumentalists Joey Cook, Ryan Fuson, Kyle Hager, Julián Ruiz, and
Dustin Zozaya,
Holy Wave were
formed in 2008 when Hager and Ruiz decided to leave their hometown of El Paso,
Texas for the more musically friendly environment of Austin; the musicians
first drove from El Paso to Santa Monica, California to catch a rare show by My
Bloody Valentine, and then made their way back to their new hometown. After
making a name for themselves in Austin (and becoming regular guests at the
annual Austin Psych Fest), they released their first LP in 2011, Knife Hits
(the title comes from their favored method of smoking hashish).
In 2012, Holy
Wave released an EP, The Evil Has Landed, and these first two releases were
paired up on a 2013 collection called Evil Hits. In early 2014, Holy Wave
issued their second proper album, simply titled Relax.
