Bio

Band der Waals is an alternative rock and fusion band from Ecatepec de Morelos, State of Mexico. A group of engineers who wanted to bring science, emotion and music together formed it in October 2022; the name comes from van der Waals forces, the weak attraction between molecules. They blend rock with jazz, R&B, indie and pop, with sax and keys up front.
