British Music Embassy @ Cedar Street Courtyard

Driven by vocalist & guitarist Jess’s creative vision, alt-trio CALVA LOUISE has just released their most multifaceted work to date, a 13 tracks album where their eclectic sound provides a mesmerising introduction to an alternate reality. The album EUPHORIC is a molotov cocktail, encompassing searing guitar hooks and ambitious songwriting influenced by graphic novels and Sci-Fi movies.

The album is accompanied by a 45 minutes animation movie created by Jess, and the live shows display unique video and lights effects in relation to the lyrics of the songs.

The three musicians crossed paths in London during 2016, formed the band and started supporting artists like Razorlight, Albert Hammond Jr. and Highly Suspect. Since the beginning, their songs have found heavy rotation across radio stations like BBC1 with Jack Saunders, Huw Stephens, Annie Mac and Abbie McCarthy; BBC6 Music with Lauren Laverne, Steve Lamacq, Shaun Keaveny and the legendary Iggy Pop; X-posure with John Kennedy; Kerrang Radio with Alex Baker and a live session at BBC Maida Vale Studios.

After their explosive performances at Reading & Leeds, CALVA LOUISE are ready to make their US live debut on tour in March 2022.
