Circa Waveswas one of the runaway successes at CMJ 2014 with The New York Times comparing their performance to the “relentless rhythm-guitar drive of the Strokes.” NME praised the band for “making some of the liveliest, most epic-sounding guitar tunes around” while The Telegraph observed, “Circa Waves craft unashamedly upbeat indie-pop songs with infectious melodies and rousing choruses.”
