Worldcub

“A kaleidoscopic blend of psych-infused surf rock and west coast-influenced guitar pop.”
Paul Lester, THE GUARDIAN

“Although it’s still only early days in the band’s fledgling career, their potential is enormous.” DROWNED IN SOUND

“Welsh psych rockers appeared at 2pm – and blew away all expectations.”
BBC Introducing at Leeds Festival

Worldcub is piloted by brothers Cynyr and Dion Hamer, they began their musical journey under the name ‘CaStLeS’, taking influence from 70s/80s McCartney and DIY ‘Fantastic Man’, William Onyeabor. They produce material from their home studio on the hills of Eryri, splicing together elements of surf guitar music, kraut-rock grooves and hypnotic psych tinged Cymru vocal harmonies.

Their self-released, site-specific themed debut album ‘Fforesteering’ gained coverage on major platforms such as The Guardian and UNCUT Magazine, with air time on BBC Radio 6 Music, BBC Radio 1, BBC Radio Cymru & Wales. The band also earned their debut performance slot on the BBC Introducing stage at Reading & Leeds Festival in 2016 and found success playing shows as part of the ‘Horizons 12’ scheme; which included a recording session at the historic ‘Maida Vale Studios’ in London.
