Dead Orchards are an English indie rock band formed in London, England in 2016. The band consists of multi-instrumentalist Simon Adams and vocalist-guitarist Bobby Faghihi. The band have released 3 full albums, 2020's "Sins In Lo-Fi", 2023's "I Sometimes Wonder Where You Are Now" and 2024's "No Longer Will We Dream". The band have also released 3 EPs, 2021's "Postpone Everything From Now On", 2022's "Months Tied Unremembering" and 2023's "Try".

After originally starting as a lo-fi acoustic band in 2016, the band changed direction in the early 2020s, moving towards a more electronic, synth-driven sound, with their latest album "No Longer Will We Dream" drawing on a wide range of influences and instruments.[1] On reviewing their 2024 album, RGM described the record as "a refreshing mix of acoustic roots and electronic ambition that makes it feel like Dead Orchards are paving a unique path forward."[2]

Dead Orchards have played a number of London venues such as The Water Rats, Hope and Anchor, Half Moon and 229.
