Hailing from New Orleans, LA, Lord Waverly operates by a strong asthetic rooted in modern architecture: Simplify, then repeat. Their lyrics are delicate and melodies are fragile, pretty little things that conjure emotions connected to childhood and innocence, while remaining connected to the more bittersweet relationships we encounter throughout adulthood.
Band/artist history
"Lord Waverly is one guy from New Orleans. That's me. I record in my private studio all on my lonesome. While I'd love to perform, my frustration with the local music scene bullied me into resorting to the one-man-in-a-studio thing. But it has worked out quite nicely. I make the music I want to hear."
Your musical influences
"David Bowie, The Beatles, Burt Bacharach, Beach Boys, Pulp, Morrissey, Elliott Smith, Badly Drawn Boy, Eric Matthews, Rufus Wainwright, Dandy Warhols, Pixies, Kings of Convenience, The Sundays, Nick Drake, Scott Walker, The Divine Comedy, Belle & Sebastian, Roxy Music, Blur, High Llamas, The Kinks, Steve Harley, Radiohead, T Rex, Pink Floyd, The Hollies, blah blah etc etc..."
