Biography

Wasuremono 忘れ物 (Japanese noun. Meaning: lost article; something forgotten) are a quartet driven by multi-instrumentalist William Southward - a vessel through which he channels his love to write, record and meticulously arrange atmospheric pop songs in his shed studio in Bradford-On-Avon, UK. The messages and sounds of their work so far has had particular resonance, creating a cult fan following as well as opening doors at key cultural gate-keepers. Steve Lamacq and Lauren Laverne at BBC 6 Music have been key champions, with spins also coming in from Radio 1 and BEATS. The likes of The Guardian, DORK Magazine and Louder Than War at press have been singing their praises. On the live side, support slots with the iconic Flaming Lips and Phosphorescent have seen the band take in legendary London venues the Shepherd’s Bush Empire and KOKO. “Gorgeously melodic, motorik pop” - The Guardian “a continuously exciting and distinctive group” - The Line of Best Fit “They’ve got a real warmth and purpose to their song writing” - Steve Lamacq BBC 6 Music. “Wasuremono… means anything forgotten or left behind in Japanese. No chance with this brilliant band.” - Lauren Laverne BBC 6 Music.
