wave to earth

wave to earth is a three-piece from Seoul: Daniel Kim (vocals, guitar), Dong Q (drums), and John Cha (bass). Their music sits somewhere between indie pop, blues, and jazz: warm, unhurried, built around the kind of melancholic melodies that feel like late evenings. Under the motto "All Self-made," the band records, mixes, and masters their own work, and shapes everything around it: album art, videos, the way they look on stage. Since 2019, that approach has carried them from bedroom recordings to sold-out rooms across North America, Europe, Latin America, and Asia, including a recent three-night run at Seoul's Olympic Hall and Lollapalooza stages in Chicago, Brazil, and India. Their 2023 debut album "0.1 flaws and all." introduced "seasons," a song that has since crossed 500 million streams. The 2024 EP "play with earth! 0.03" followed, along with a fully sold-out 29-date North American tour.
