Tulsa, Oklahoma band Wilderado – Max Rainer (lead singer, guitarist), Tyler Wimpee (guitarist, vocals), Justin Kila (drums) – is excited to be announcing the September 20th release of their new full length studio album Talker via Bright Antenna Records. The album was recorded in Norman, Oklahoma, and produced by Chad Copelin (Sufjan Stevens, SYML) and James McAlister (Gracie Abrams, The National).
When asked about the new LP, Rainer shared, “I’m proud to say we made an album that feels like home and weathers who we are.” Along with the news, the band is sharing the LP’s title track “Talker.” The acoustic tinged single taps into the Wilderado’s Oklahoma roots and showcases Rainer’s emotive vocals.
In addition to the album announcement and new single, the band has shared that they will embark on a fall headline tour, extending their already extensive US headline run that has them out all of June and July before heading to Chicago to play Lollapalooza in August. The new dates are for the entire month of October, culminating with a headline show in their hometown at Cain’s Ballroom on October 26th with direct support from Josiah & The Bonnevilles.
“Talker” joins a few album tracks that have already been released ahead of the sophomore LP. February brought the double single “Sometimes” b/w “Tomorrow.” Wilderado’s expansive indie rock fuses soaring vocals and rumbling guitars with an open-road, Americana-inspired feel.
