Our Take
Our Take
Prepare to have your expectations wildly exceeded with Wild Child's latest album, appropriately titled "Expectations." This Austin-based band has managed to craft a collection of songs that are as eclectic and vibrant as a seaside carnival, with lead singer Kelsey Wilson's vocals floating effortlessly over an intricate tapestry of indie folk, pop, and rock.
From the foot-tapping, toe-tapping joy of tracks like "Back and Forth" and "Eggshells" to the hauntingly beautiful balladry of "Sinking Ship" and "Follow Me," Wild Child takes listeners on a musical journey that is both emotionally resonant and infectiously catchy. The band's unique use of instrumentation, including violins, cellos, and even a glockenspiel, adds a whimsical and enchanting element to their sound that sets them apart from their contemporaries.
The lyrics on "Expectations" are as clever and witty as they are heartfelt, with Wilson's storytelling abilities shining through on every track. Whether you're dancing in your living room or crying into your pillow, Wild Child's music has a way of tapping into your soul and making you feel something real.
In a world full of manufactured pop stars and cookie-cutter hits, Wild Child stands out as a refreshing and authentic voice in the music industry. "Expectations" is a triumphant celebration of love, loss, and everything in between, and a testament to the band's undeniable talent and boundless creativity. Don't sleep on this album – it's an absolute gem that deserves to be heard.
