Biography

Maybeshewill are an instrumental band born in the city of Leicester.

Over the course of their over twenty year career they’ve released five full-length albums and an EP of cinematic instrumental music. They’ve toured relentlessly across four continents, including with The Dillinger Escape Plan, …And You Will Know Us By The Trail of Dead, Bossk, And So I Watch You From Afar and countless others.

In 2016 they bowed out with a sold out show at London’s Koko, reforming again briefly in 2018 at the request of The Cure’s Robert Smith for a show at Meltdown Festival. In 2021 they returned with their first new material since 2014. Having worked on ideas separately in the intervening years, it was the sketches of music that would become ‘No Feeling is Final’ that pulled the band back together. Building on the songs that they felt needed to be heard, together. It’s an album born from a place of weary exasperation with the world – about putting feelings of hopelessness aside and using fear and frustration as fuel to make something positive. 

Continuing and building on the self-sufficient, do-it-yourself ethos that has been core to Maybeshewill’s existence, ‘No Feeling is Final’ was once again recorded and produced by bassist Jamie Ward, and released on the bands own Robot Needs Home Collective Label, in collaboration with close friends Wax Bodega (North America), New Noise (Asia) and Birds Robe (Australasia).
