BIO

The Wilderness is what you get when six brothers from Kingston, ON spend nine years driving 100,000 miles for nothing but the love of rock n’ roll. Sometimes, you get songs to unpack in therapy sessions where you find yourself oversharing to strangers about your weird relationship with your dad and how you thought you'd be young forever. Other times, you get your mum's favourite would-be arena band crammed into your hometown's sweatiest dive bar on a Tuesday night when rent is due in the morning. No matter what, you get the hardest-working, harmony-belting, saxophone-growling, cowboy-chord-strumming, tambourine throwing small-town rock n’ roll band your friends have probably never heard of. Since 2015. Until forever.
