Arc of Triumph are an alternative rock band from Leeds, known for their cinematic soundscapes, rich harmonies and a lyrical obsession with the rise and fall of empires both personal and political.

Formed by long-time collaborators, Simon Elvin and Rory Holl, what started in 2017 as a studio experiment quickly snowballed into something bigger. With no name and no fully fleshed out agenda, they began writing and recording tracks that would eventually become their debut, self-titled album.
