History

Wilder Maker began releasing music in 2014 with a self-released EP entitled Everyday Crimes Against Objects of Desire.[2] The EP was premiered by Stereogum.[3] In 2017, Wilder Maker signed with Saddle Creek and released the single "New Streets."[4] The release brought wider attention to the band and Spin Magazine called the single "unambiguously catchy, offering the band’s idiosyncratic perspective on the more silken side of ’70s radio rock."[5] [6] "Only Child," the b-side to "New Streets" was recorded by Bryan Pugh at Rubber Tracks in Brooklyn, and features the guitar work of Will Graefe of Okkervil River.[7] [8]

In 2018, Wilder Maker released their first full-length album entitled Zion.[9] [10] Following the release of Zion, Wilder Maker toured the United States, performing in more than 20 cities across the country.[11] [12] In 2019, Wilder Maker performed at Underwater Sunshine Festival in New York City.[13]
