Sea Fever came together as a unit in a way that felt inevitable: “We’d wanted to work with each other for ages so when we finally sat down in the studio the band just seemed to come together naturally. It felt like we were really free to explore the kinds of music that have always inspired us. We dug right through the record crates of our minds to shape the sound of Sea Fever.”
Their 2021 debut album Folding Lines was the result of that creative energy—a ten-track record that effortlessly combined intelligent electronics post-punk textures and hypnotic melodies. Featuring singles such as De Facto Crossed Wires Folding Lines Afterthought Under Duress and Built To Last the album earned early support from BBC 6 Music’s Chris Hawkins and others.
Now in 2025 Sea Fever return with a renewed sense of purpose pushing their sound further into synth-driven technicolour soundscapes. With deep electronic textures binary beats and glowing neon sparks of melody their latest music—led by the singles Loose Cut and Breaking Out—captures a band evolving while remaining true to their roots.
The lineup featuring Tom Chapman and Phil Cunningham (New Order) Iwan Gronow (Haven Johnny Marr) Beth Cassidy (Section 25) and Elliot Barlow (Brix & The Extricated) brings a wealth of experience to their powerful and dynamic sound. Having recently signed to Stockport-based indie label Cosmic Glue the band is gearing up for a year of new releases and live performances solidifying their reputation as one of the UK’s most exciting genre-blurring acts.
