Music like glass animals

Glass Animals are an English indie rock band from Oxford consisting of members Dave Bayley (lead vocals, guitar, tambourine), Drew MacFarlane (guitar, keys, backing vocals), Edmund Irwin-Singer (bass, keys, backing vocals), and Joe Seaward (drums). The group released their debut album Zaba in June 2014 as the first release on producer Paul Epworth's label Wolf Tone, and their second album How To Be A Human Being was released on August 26, 2016, to critical acclaim. The band has toured internationally and featured on line ups at festivals such as Glastonbury, Coachella, Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, Reading/Leeds, Falls, Southbound and Bestival.

Lead singer Dave Bayley and his friends grew up listening to hip-hop, which partly inspired the band's style. Despite Bayley writing and recordings songs in his spare time, the group did not play together until they finished school. Bayley eventually convinced Seaward, MacFarlane and Irwin-Singer to join him. All four bandmates attended St Edward's School, Oxford.
