Gomez stood out from their very beginning nearly a decade ago, earning critical praise and an ever-growing fan base for their eclectic and ambitious musical tack. The British band is a five-piece act consisting of Ben Ottewell, Tom Gray, Paul Blackburn, Olly Peacock, and Ian Ball.


The group saw great success with their 2006 album, How We Operate, which debuted at #1 on Billboard's "Heatseekers" chart. Their latest album, A New Tide, is the band's most adventurous and ambitious work to date. Released in March, the album finds the band returning to their more experimental roots, incorporating flavors of Delta blues, psychedelia, and Krautrock into their music.


The group emerged during a time when the majority of up-and-coming British bands were either retro-pop, trip-hop, or space rock, but Gomez managed to capture fans with their distinct, bluesy rock. Almost a decade later, the band continues to stand out with their original style and flavorful sound.
