Katrina and the Waves was a rock group from Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, England, active from 1981 to 1999. The name 'The Waves' is derived from a band that members Alex Cooper and Kimberley Rew were part of in the mid-70s. The band's recognition began to grow significantly when the Bangles covered their song 'Going Down To Liverpool.' Their peak came in 1985 with the release of the upbeat pop hit 'Walking On Sunshine,' which became closely associated with them. Despite continuing to record and headline concerts until their breakup in 1999, they were often regarded as a one-hit wonder, even after winning the Eurovision Song Contest in 1997 with 'Love Shine a Light.'
