Background notes
Archive material and source history
Byword formed in London and released their debut album 'The Calm Before the Storm' in 2012. The title track 'The Storm' became something of an anthem for them early on. They've put out a few albums since then, including 'Eye of the Storm' in 2015 and 'Equilibrium' in 2021.
The band has had some lineup changes over time, with two founding members leaving at one point. The current trio includes Alex Sinclair on vocals and guitar, Ben Harrison on bass, and Jake Evans on drums. Their sound has shifted some from their indie rock beginnings, incorporating more experimental and electronic elements in later work.
They've had their share of attention for being outspoken in their lyrics, and there were some accusations about drug use that came up at one point. But they kept recording and playing shows, developing a reputation for energetic live performances. Another track people know is 'Who Am I' from their catalog.
