Wilderado with Husbands

Due to high demand, Wilderado’s sold out Fox Theatre show with Husbands on September 26th has been moved to Boulder Theater. All tickets purchased for the Fox Theatre show will be honored at the Boulder Theater.

Formed in the California mountains, but originally hailing from Tulsa, OK, Wilderado have been steadily building a passionate fan base and defining who they are since 2015. When they first came together, Maxim Rainer (lead vocals, guitar), Tyler Wimpee (guitar, vocals) and Justin Kila (drums) spent a summer in Latigo Canyon, a secluded part of Malibu, with longtime Sufjan Stevens collaborator James McAlister, immersing themselves in writing and recording. Those songs went on to form early EP releases with tastemaker indie labels IAMSOUND and National Anthem, which garnered more than 150 million streams, but more crucially provided the backbone to years of touring.

Following initial recording sessions at their one-time home and creative space named “The Misty Shrub” (the title of the first EP) in Latigo Canyon (the title of the second EP), the band returned Tulsa to base themselves from their hometown. Since then, they’ve crisscrossed the USA a half dozen times playing with artists as diverse as Kings of Leon, Lindsey Buckingham and Christine McVie, Mt. Joy, and Rainbow Kitten Surprise, and have performed on the main stage at such festivals as Lollapalooza, Bottlerock and Austin City Limits.

Some time off from the road in 2020 meant that the band were able to focus on completing their debut eponymous LP. Working with producers and friends James McAlister (The National, Sufjan Stevens, Taylor Swift), Chad Copelin (Broncho, LANY) and Angelo Petraglia (Kings of Leon) the debut record was released in the fall of 2021 via Bright Antenna Records. Single 'Head Right’ shows the ambition and intent of a band on the up. With this single and their TV debut on Jimmy Kimmel Live! and then a performance on CBS Saturday Morning, the band achieved their first Top 10 hit at Alternative Radio, reaching the mark after an incredible 26 weeks on the chart.

2022 saw the return to the road, with over 150 shows played, multiple sold out headline dates, support to Mt. Joy in iconic venues and the band’s first UK and Irish dates with alt-J. The second single “Surefire” is set to be the band’s breakout hit, with over 40 million streams and heading for the Top 10 at Alternative Radio.
