Wave

Wave was a Canadian pop rock duo, from Niagara Falls, Ontario. The band members were Dave Thomson and Paul Gigliotti. They were signed by Warner Music Canada and released their debut album, Nothing as It Seems. Their radio single "California" quickly increased in airplay and reached 1 on the Canadian pop charts, helping sales figures of the album to reach Gold certification. This song made Wave internationally known as a one-hit wonder. Wave opened for O-Town and Canadian group soulDecision on their tours. In 2007, Canadian artist Brandon Jones recorded and released a cover of "California" on his debut album. "California" was featured on the first episode of Newport Harbor: The Real Orange County. Paul Gigliotti attended Notre Dame Elementary School in Niagara Falls and both members of the band attended St. Paul High School in Niagara Falls, Ontario before receiving a record contract. Paul is still currently pursuing music (The Voices) and producing while Dave is living in Nashville working as a song writer for Sony.
