Aqaba is a four-piece, rock/indie/space band based near Bath, with musical style influences including The National, Death Cab for Cutie, Peter Gabriel and Frightened Rabbit. They absolutely wowed this year’s Swinterfest and they will be making a welcome return to Swindon to open this year’s Shuffle. ‘Very melodic - lots of harmonies. Quite thoughtful songs in their construction and how they’re delivered. A flavour of Talk Talk.’
(Phil Moakes - Visual Radio Arts)
