In Hearts Wake
In Hearts Wake are an Australian metalcore band from Byron Bay, formed in 2006. The current members are Jake Taylor (vocals), Eaven Dall (guitar), Ben Nairne (guitar), and Conor Ward (drums). Their bassist Kyle Erich left the band in 2024.
They have six studio albums: Divination (2012), Earthwalker (2014), Skydancer (2015), Ark (2017), Kaliyuga (2020), and Incarnation (2024). Their lyrics often focus on environmental issues, justice, spirituality, and social topics.
The band started as five friends in Byron Bay. They released a demo in 2006 and the Into the Storm EP later that year. They added drummer Caleb Burton in 2007 and developed a heavier, faster sound. They signed with UNFD in 2012 and released Divination, which charted in Australia.
In Hearts Wake have toured widely in Australia, Europe and North America with many bands. They launched the We Are Waterborne initiative to clean beaches with fans. Ark (2017) raised their profile, and they joined the Vans Warped Tour in 2018. In 2020 they released Kaliyuga, with several singles. Incarnation was released on 12 July 2024, followed by the track Farewell as a tribute to Erich.
Their music blends metalcore, hardcore, and nu metal.
