Since 2011 these Canadians have been dedicating their lives to pumping out tunes and tearing apart highways. With a recently solidified six-man lineup We Were Sharks are poised to pop.

After their debut LP release, Highways, in 2012 the band started gaining national notoriety and laid the foundations of a loyal fan base. Reinforced by their most accomplished work to date, 2015’s Not A Chance EP, which was released through Panic State Records. The record’s single “Bridge Burner” quickly amassed over 1,000,000 plays on Spotify.

Based in Ottawa and collecting members from the far reaches of Eastern Canada, We Were Sharks continue to wield the full-force of Canadian alternative music. Through a penchant for blending melodic harmony with powerful dissonance they continue to produce infectious music. Even though these boys already have a lot of mileage under their belts, their book is far from written.

We Were Sharks Lyrics

It's three a.m
And I can't seem to close my eyes
A piece of me is missing
When you're not by my side
Nobody knows how
Much I need this
Nobody knows how
Much I need this
And I find comfort
In the littlest of things

Knowing you're somewhere
Sleeping while I sing
Nobody knows how
Much I need this
Nobody knows how
Much I need this
The city lights are blinding (are blinding)
No sleep tonight
I'll be thinking of you
No matter where I go
(You're home sweet home)
No matter where I go
I keep this picture of you
To keep me company
You're the last thing that i see
Before I fall asleep
Nobody knows how
Much I need this
Nobody knows how
Much I need this
The city lights are blinding (are blinding)
No sleep tonight
I'll be thinking of you
No matter where I go
(You're home sweet home)
No matter where I go
(You're home sweet home)
You're home sweet home
You're home sweet home
I wish you were here (my home sweet home)
I wish you were here (my home sweet home)
I wish you were here (my home sweet home)
I wish you were here (my home sweet home)
It's three a.m
And I can't seem to close my eyes
A piece of me is missing
When you're not by my side
Nobody knows how
Much I need this
Nobody knows how
Much I need this
