Bastille (stylised as BΔSTILLE and known on YouTube as BASTILLEvideos) are an English pop rock band formed in 2010. The group began as a solo project by lead vocalist Dan Smith, but later expanded to include keyboardist Kyle Simmons, bassist and guitarist Will Farquarson and drummer Chris "Woody" Wood.
The name of the band derives from Bastille Day, which is celebrated on July 14, the date of Smith's birthday.[1] They have released three studio albums: Bad Blood (2013), Wild World (2016) and Doom Days (2019). Their song Pompeii became a meme after being used in videos of countries and regions disappearing from maps.[2][3]
