SKYWARD is a four-piece indie band formed in Berlin in 2016, known for their expansive, atmospheric sound and a live show that has been described as 'a small lighting storm in a small room.' The group writes, produces and mixes all of their own work, often in single extended sessions that become the basis of an album.
Their sound — anchored by reverb-heavy guitars, layered vocals and a rhythm section that is as comfortable with ambient electronica as it is with post-rock dynamics — has earned them a devoted following across Europe and Asia, and critical recognition in publications from The Guardian to The Wire.
In 2024, SKYWARD released their fourth studio album, 'A Map of the Air,' to widespread critical acclaim. The record was named one of the year's best by The Quietus, Stereogum and Bandcamp Daily.
