Artist Bio
DIIV is an American band that emerged around 2011, known for blending shoegaze, indie rock, and dream pop influences. Hailing from the US, they gained attention with the shimmering guitar textures and airy melodies of their debut album *Oshin* in 2012, and have since explored darker, heavier sounds—especially on 2019’s critically acclaimed *Deceiver*. The band has gone through lineup changes over the years, including the departure of Devin Ruben Perez in 2017, but has remained active with regular releases, such as *Frog in Boiling Water* (2024) and new singles into 2025. Their style draws comparisons to acts like Beach Fossils, Wild Nothing, and early Smashing Pumpkins, balancing lush atmospheres with introspective energy. DIIV is recognized for continuously evolving their sound while staying connected to the indie and shoegaze scene.
