Cruel Season is a new Liverpool-based alt-indie band formed by Arran O’Connell-Whittle, Carl Dillon, Dylan Robert and Josh Higgins.

Arran, Carl and Josh previously played together in The Night Café, a band that built a loyal following through acclaimed releases, years of touring and sold out shows across the UK and beyond. After spending time away from music, they returned to the rehearsal room and formed Cruel Season with Dylan Robert.

Built on friendship, shared history and a desire to keep making music together, the project marks a new chapter for the Liverpool musicians.
