Further developing their hazy, atmospheric sounds, the band have taken inspiration from India and the Far East to create washed out, hypnotic textures. The lush and epic new tracks signal a band further defining their sound and creating truly affecting music, both vibrant and tranquil.
In their native Turkey, The Away Days have shared stages with luminaries including Wild Beasts, Savages, Portishead, Belle & Sebastian, Owen Pallet and Massive Attack. Acclaimed by the likes of NME, SPIN, Noisey, BBC 6Music and many more, the band have been rising steadily before they release their debut full-length album in 2015.

Praise for The Away Days:
“The sublime shoegaze riffage yearns for the days of Ride and Slowdive but still sounds like a product of 2014” NME
“Turkish shoegaze might not be a major phenomenon, but given the breadth of their talent,
it soon could be.” Guardian
“The Away Days project a shimmering, head-swaying spell” SPIN
“You were probably on the market for a new favorite indie band and what the fuck have those other guys done for you lately” Noisey
“The chilled out with the searingly intense which powers The Away Days, taking them away from that well-worn shoegaze sound and into an area very much their own.” Clash
