Knife Pleats – sharp and innovative music

If you’re craving some soft indie rock vibes, then Knife Pleats has you covered. The bands’ been around since 2014 and they have continued to gain traction in the Vancouver music scene. Their songs are catchy, their vocals powerful, and their energy is a perfect mix of smooth and enticing. When I hear songs like “Wonderful” I just want to lay on my couch and reflect on life. The Knife Pleats are the perfect band for chill session.

Knife Pleats main rep person is Rose Melberg. She’s a well-known figure in the indie rock world and she’s been making music for well over two decades. Knife Pleats utilizes Rose Melbergs’ impressive abilities and builds on her experience by adding some fellow talented musicians into the mix. Gregor Phillips, Kaity McWhinney, and Tracey Vath of Love Cuts help bring a fresh perspective and make Knife Pleats even more unique.

I really appreciate how Knife Pleats uses each band members combined skills to blend different genres together seamlessly. Their songs are an eccentric combo of indie rock, power pop, and punk. I honestly think it’s impossible not to zone out and get lost in the immaculate vibes of their music. What can I say their songs are just so catchy, relatable, and plain fun to listen to.
