“WWTBTS' unique brand of self-aware noise pop is thoughtful, yet thuggish – kind of like being punched by a librarian.” (Cloak & Dagger 'zine)

WWTBTS are a bright and shiny new band based in Washington DC.

Soaring melodies, addictive hooks and epic choruses – We Wanted To Be The Sky are a shiny new band. Their music is melodic, mathy and relentless.

Like a classic soap opera with a set full of cliffhangers, WWTBTS carefully craft songs with lessons of escape, desire, drama and random elements from the periodic table.

"Bless my cotton socks this is good!
Quirky, jerky, spunky and any number of other words ending in Y can be used to describe this excellent blend of math-pop, punky garage noise and melody." (Bob Osborne - Bob's Aural Delights)
