History

2013–2015: Formation and ''Think''

Kaleida formed in 2013, when Wood and Goulder were introduced by a mutual friend through email. At the time, Wood had been at work in the forests of Borneo, while Goulder had been in the film industry. From 2013 to late 2014, the duo released demos of songs "Think" and "Tropea", releasing a video for the latter in 2013. On 19 December 2014 Lex Records announced they had signed Kaleida and would be releasing their debut extended play, Think, on 6 April 2015. In 2014, Kaleida garnered worldwide attention when their song, "Think", was featured in the 2014 action film John Wick and its soundtrack. The song's minimalist structure specifically contrasted the violent scenes in which it was used.

2015: Touring and ''Detune''

In a 2015 interview with Ground Sounds, Kaleida stated that following their European tour with Róisín Murphy, the band would begin work on their debut album. On 3 November 2015 Kaleida released a new single, "Detune". On 24 February 2016 the band released a new single, "It's Not Right", and a second EP, Detune, was released on 26 February. Their debut album, Tear the Roots, was set for a September 2017 release.
