WORLD NEWS // CWRWWe’re excited to announce that World News will be joining us at CWRW during Independent Venue Week!
The London-based quartet create jangly, atmospheric and dreamy guitar-driven music, brimful of trademark seductive melodies and ever-guessing moods. World News were named in Stereogum's 40 Best New Artists of 2024, and featured as artists to watch in 2025 in both SPIN and FADER.
“Throwback indie rock of the highest order” – FADER
Tickets are on sale now via DICE – link in bio.

More about World News:
With an eclectic set of influences from the ‘70s and ‘80s dipping into post-punk, indie-rock and shoegaze alike, World News combines addictive atmospheric guitar riffs with seductive, nonchalant melodies. Moody, punchy, and nostalgic, they’ve called comparisons to iconic British bands that have come before them– from The Smiths to The Clash to Dire Straits.
Last year saw a continued upward trajectory for the band with the release of two standout EPs, Escape and Mindsnap, their debut appearance in the US at The New Colossus Festival in New York City, and features in Stereogum’s 40 Best New Artists of 2024 and The Fader’s 13 Artists to Watch for 2025.
“If you think jangly, bittersweet indie-pop is a lost art, you owe it to yourself to check out this London band, who would’ve been stars on ’80s college radio.” – Stereogum
