About the Artist

Deaf Havana, hailing from the UK, have carved a unique niche in the rock music scene since their formation. Their journey has been marked by evolution, moving from their earlier pop-punk-infused sound to embrace a more mature and diverse rock palette. Their breakthrough album, 'Fools and Worthless Liars', established them as a significant force, but it was their subsequent releases, including the critically acclaimed 'Old Souls' and the more recent 'The Present Is A Foreign Land', that showcased their artistic growth and lyrical depth.
