The Tragic Story of Viola Beach

Welcome to Music Rewind! Nowadays, people are listening to more indie music. Whether that is indie rock music like Sam Fender and The Wombats or indie-pop like Clairo or Alfie Templeman. Indie music extends beyond its own label, crossing over to genres such as bedroom pop or lo-fi music, best shown in acts such as Dominik Fike, bbno$ and Alec Benjamin.
The musicians I’ve mentioned have managed to build a career and continue to push their music and evolve as artists. However, today on Music Rewind we are going to be talking about one of the most promising indie rock bands that met such an early and cruel end. Their name was Viola Beach, and this is their story.

I really love Call You Up, there's something so emotional about that song

[@barzun8]

one of my favourite bands of all time, followed them before the accident and was planning to see them at sxsw, such a tragedy. RIP

[@kyleleonard]

They featured on two of my free to download indie albums, really nice lads - I wish I had access to my old emails with Kris.

[@ZapperRS]

They would be as big as names such as Franz Ferdinand, Vampire Weekend or The Vaccines if they were still around. RIP amazing band

[@ryanhuxleyeducation]
