Awsten Knight, Otto Wood, and Geoff Wingington formed Waterparks in 2011 in their hometown of Houston, Texas. With 5 albums, 3 eps, and a demo album they refused to define and conform to a specific genre by constantly trying new sounds and - each time. Cryptic lore and enchanting visuals are a hallmark of the band's creations, evident in their album art, music videos, stage sets, and photoshoots.

Awsten Knight has also individually published a book and has an exclusive clothing brand + is an online menace.
