About

Bastille (stylized as BΔSTILLE) are an English indie pop band formed in 2010. The group began as a solo project by lead vocalist Dan Smith, but later expanded to include keyboardist Kyle Simmons, bassist and guitarist Will Farquarson and drummer Chris "Woody" Wood.

After an independently released debut single and a self-released EP, the band signed to Virgin Records. Their first studio album, Bad Blood, was released in March 2013 and entered the UK Albums Chart at number one and included the hit single "Pompeii" which peaked at number two on the UK Singles Chart. Bastille released the album in the US later that year. Their second studio album, Wild World, was released in September 2016, and was followed by Doom Days, Bastille's third studio album, in June 2019. In February 2022, Bastille released their fourth studio album, Give Me the Future. Their fifth studio album, "&", was released in October 2024.

Bastille's music has been featured in television shows, films, video games, and advertisements. Bastille was nominated for four Brit Awards at the 2014 ceremony, winning the British Breakthrough Act. As of August 2021, the band have sold over eleven million records worldwide.

Bastille (stylisé en BΔSTILLE) est un groupe d'indie pop originaire de Londres (Angleterre), formé en 2010. Bastille a démarré comme un projet solo du chanteur-compositeur-interprète Daniel Campbell Smith, plus connu sous le nom de Dan Smith, qui a décidé plus tard de former un groupe. Le quatuor se compose de Daniel Campbell Smith, du percussionniste Chris « Woody » Wood, du guitariste-bassiste Will Farquarson et du claviériste Kyle Simmons. Le guitariste Charlie Barnes participe également aux concerts et tournées. Le nom du groupe est inspiré de la fête nationale française (Bastille Day en anglais) ; le jour de la naissance de Dan Smith.

EMI Music annonça Bastille comme l'une de ses nouvelles recrues pour Virgin Records le 1er décembre 2011. Leur premier album studio, Bad Blood, est sorti le 4 mars 2013 et s'est immédiatement retrouvé en tête des classements anglais. Leur deuxième album Wild World est sorti le 9 septembre 2016 et s'est retrouvé en tête des meilleures ventes d'albums en Angleterre pendant plus de deux semaines consécutives.
