California is an infectious slice of lo-fi dream pop, featuring lush synths, reverberated guitars, swaggering bass, intricate pop rhythms and soaring, euphoric falsetto vocals. The summery, care-free lyrics of the song transport us straight to the Golden State on the West Coast, cruising with the top down and soaking up the sun, whilst being gently swept along by a cool, delicate breeze.
We all dream of getting away from the hardships of life, and California conveys that sense escapism and longing we all feel.

California

Edinburgh-based Alternative/Art-Pop band WUKASA walk a sonically fine line between a chilled night at home with the cat or waking up with ringing ears, sore feet, some unforgettable memories and that special someone youʼve been unhealthily admiring on Instagram for way too long...

Having captured the intrigue and attention of the city with their exotic blend of shimmering guitars and punchy toe-tapping 808's, they have been described as a musical cocktail of Glass Animals, Everything Everything, Easy Life and HONNE. Such individualism has seen them previously appear in many weird and wonderful places such as Spotifyʼs New Music Friday, Topshop's worldwide in-store playlist, Made In Chelsea E4, The Official Premier League and a little- known show about an island where people find love in their speedos.

WUKASA arrive with a focused purpose and a fiery passion for their craft. With explosive debut single “Ready For It” - produced by a dream team of Rory McCallum (Bwani Junction), BuzzKiller (Robbie Williams, Olly Murs, Newton Faulkner) and California's Adam Haggar (Childish Gambino, Kanye West)
WUKASA are the very definition of a band you should NOT sleep on. This is only the beginning. See you soon.
