Synthpop band formed in 2006 in Greenville, North Carolina and based in Baltimore, Maryland. Currently signed to 4AD.
Future Islands is a synthpop band that originated in Greenville, North Carolina back in 2006.

Now based in Baltimore, Maryland, Future Islands continues to create mesmerizing music that resonates with fans worldwide.
With their distinct blend of synth-driven melodies and heartfelt lyrics, Future Islands has gained a loyal following over the years. Their energetic live shows are known for frontman Samuel T. Herring's passionate vocals and dynamic stage presence. As one of the leading bands in the genre, Future Islands has been making waves with their infectious tracks and thought-provoking lyrics.

cd version comes in a digipack with 6 panel booklet. 'on the water' is future islands' eagerly awaited new album, following last year's critically acclaimed 'in evening air' and their instantly sold out 7" 'before the bridge'. future islands' romantic synth sound scales new heights with 'on the water', the baltimore trio's most ambitious and fully realized statement yet. built around a song cycle exploring love, loss, and memory, their latest album finds the band continuing to deliver pounding rhythms, swelling melodies, and undeniable hooks - but finding new ways to probe inner space and tug at hearts. 'on the water' was recorded by chester endersby gwazda (producer of 'in evening air'and dan deacon's 'bromst'), mastered by sarah register at the lodge, and features guest appearances from denny bowen (double dagger, dan deacon) and jenn wasner (wye oak). 'on the water' is an addictive ride that demands repeat listens, eagerly awaiting the test of time. to produce these results, future islands fleshed out its sound with the additions of cello, violin, marimba, and field recordings.
