[2] The band formed in 2014 and currently consists of lead vocalist Liam Guinane, guitarist Justin Keurntjes, bassist Indey Salvestro, Synthist Connor Robins and drummer Chris Lalic.

The founding lineup featured vocalist Will King, bassist Indey Salvestro, drummer Chris Lalic and guitarists Mark Mcghie and Will Eggleton.

Their debut single "The Charade", featuring Zach Britt of Dream On, Dreamer, was released on 15 September.

The EP was produced, mixed and mastered by Sonny Truelove at STL Studios in Sydney, Australia.

[16] On 1 February 2019, Windwaker released the single "The Sitch" with an accompanying music video and announced pre-orders for their sophomore EP Empire.

I think we have always feared trapping ourselves in a box, kept in by one-dimensional expectations, and we are very conscious of not allowing that influence to hinder our creativity.

[24] Windwaker announced that Guinane was unable to attend the tour due to personal obligations, so former-Weighbridge vocalist/guitarist Sean Ross filled in.

He played at Windwaker's performances at Good Things in December and Unify Festival in January 2020 before departing.

[26][27] On 30 December 2020, Windwaker announced their plans to release their debut studio album Love Language.
