The dreamy London rockers Whitelands are calling it quits. In an Instagram statement about their breakup, Whitelands don’t cite any reason. Instead, they graciously thank their supporters. <\/p>\n
Etienne Quartey-Papafio and Jagun Meseorisa started Whitelands in 2017, when both of them were teenagers, and they released their debut album Old News in 2018. The project became a full band after Vanessa Govinden and Michael Adelaja joined up. In 2024, Whitelands signed to Sonic Cathedral, toured with Slowdive, and released the album Night-bound Eyes Are Blind To The Day<\/a>. Their album Sunlight Echoes came out earlier this year, and David Jonsson and Honor Swinton Byrne starred in their “Glance<\/a>” video.<\/p>\n Whitelands seemed like they were still growing, and they had a lot of potential. Hopefully, the band members will move onto new projects. Below, check out Whitelands’ annoucement and a couple of their tracks.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The dreamy London rockers Whitelands are calling it quits.
