"A gorgeous selection of songs" Mixmag

“Excels with it’s retro vs modern feel” DJ mag

“This band’s retro pop could define the summer” Bent (Album of The Month)

Cicada picked up rave plaudits for their debut album, ‘Cicada’, everywhere from Mixmag to Music Week, DJ magazine to Record Collector and beyond, gave them glowing praise, highlighting the gap in the scene for an electro pop band with the song-writing to match their hooks. Now establishing themselves on the live circuit, with acclaimed gig performances already under their belts, they’re set to be a mainstay of festivals across the globe.

Musically, references have been made to the likes of Blondie, Can, New Order, The Sugarcubes, The Cocteau Twins, Daft Punk and Quincy Jones. But Cicada, are a whole different proposition. Melding their influences into a wholly original sound has made them a unique prospect for the late Noughties – the kind of band that the rock kids ‘get’ just as much as club kids do.

The band comprises Aaron Gilbert (also known as Mr Natural) and Alex Payne. Alex and Aaron have a wealth of experience in producing, making music, and running labels. Both were born out of the electronic scene, but with an equal dislike of musical boundaries - hence their cross-genre forays and remixes for the likes of New Order, The Editors, 13 Senses, Depeche Mode, Lorraine, Seelenluft, The Source, Mish Mash and more.

A slew of hot singles such as ‘Electric Blue’, ‘All About You, ‘Things You Say’, and ‘Cut Right Through’, combined with a stunning debut long player, have earned the group a global fan-base. With territories such as Japan, Holland, Australia, and many more picking up on the buzz that first emanated from the UK, Cicada’s take on intelligent, song-based electro is becoming an unstoppable force.
