Bastille es una banda londinense de pop alternativo. Se formó en 2010 como un proyecto en solitario de Dan Smith que más tarde decidió convertirlo en una banda compuesta por el propio Dan Smith (cantante/compositor), Chris 'Woody' Wood (bateria), Will Farquarson (bajo) y Kyle Simmons (teclados). El nombre de la banda se debe a que el cumpleaños del lider del grupo, Dan Smith, coincide con el día de la toma de La Bastilla.
Lanzaron su debut con Flaws y Icarus en Young & Lost Club en Junio del 2011.

A There's an albatross around your neck E All the things you've said and the things you've done A Can you carry it with no regrets E Can you stand the person you've become
C#mE Ooh there's a light x
AEC#mB Your Albatross let it go let it go AEC#mB Your Albatross shoot it down shoot it down A When you just can't shake EB The heavy weight of living
A Stepping forward out into the day E Shrugging off the dust and memory A Though it's soaring still above your head E It is out of sight and none shall see
C#mE Oooh there's a light x
