Get ready, music lovers of the North! A truly unmissable evening of atmospheric indie rock is heading to the heart of Leeds. Deep Sea Diver, the Seattle-based quartet renowned for their expansive soundscapes and compelling lyricism, are set to grace the stage at the iconic HEADROW HOUSE on Thursday, 13th November 2025. This isn’t just another gig; it’s an opportunity to immerse yourself in the intricate sonic world of a band that consistently delivers electrifying live performances. Mark your calendars and prepare for a night where soaring vocals meet intricate guitar work, all within the vibrant embrace of one of Leeds’ most beloved cultural hubs. This promises to be an extraordinary addition to Leeds’ already thriving music scene, a perfect blend of captivating artistry and an intimate venue atmosphere.

About Deep Sea Diver

Deep Sea Diver emerged from the vibrant Seattle music scene, quickly carving out a niche with their distinctive blend of indie rock, dream pop, and post-punk influences. Fronted by the mesmerising Jessica Dobson, a talented guitarist who has also toured with The Shins and Beck, the band’s sound is characterised by Dobson’s powerful, nuanced vocals and her intricate, often soaring guitar work. Their journey began with their debut album, “History Repeats,” which immediately showcased their knack for crafting emotionally resonant and sonically rich tracks.

Over the years, Deep Sea Diver has consistently evolved, releasing critically acclaimed albums like “Secrets” and “Impossible Weight.” Their music is a masterclass in dynamic tension, moving effortlessly from hushed, introspective moments to explosive, anthemic crescendos. Hits such as “Impossible Weight,” “Lights Out,” and “Watch Us Run” exemplify their ability to combine catchy melodies with profound lyrical depth, exploring themes of resilience, vulnerability, and hope. The current lineup, featuring Dobson on vocals and guitar, Peter Mansen on drums, Garrett Rothman on bass, and John Raines on keyboards and guitar, forms a cohesive unit that translates their complex studio arrangements into a truly captivating live experience. Their forthcoming performance in Leeds is a chance to witness this synergy first-hand.
