Биография

Southern Wild, a three-piece Alternative Rock band from Cape Town, has enthralled main stage audiences at Up The Creek, Rocking the Daisies, Smoking Dragon & Oppikoppi since its formation in 2015. Opening gigs for Incubus & The Cure on their South African tours stand out especially for the band, but every time these guys take to the stage, it looks like the most important night of their lives. Whether it's a big festival night or an intimate acoustic session, the feeling transmitted to the audience is always the same. There's a heavy emphasis on emotion, progression and the modern human condition, with the band effortlessly shifting between Rock, Post-Rock, Neo-Soul, and Folk, underlining the versatility and passion that punctuates their art. Don't be surprised if you catch yourself singing along in no time; such is the relatable and authentic nature of their words. Southern Wild has come a long way in four years, and a recently signed five-year development deal with legendary producer Theo Crous means that more growth is in the pipeline. Cop their new single, “We Don’t Get Out Alive”, a hard-hitting, progressive Rock anthem taken from their highly-anticipated sophomore release, “The Art of Feeling Nothing", a record that showcases more of that trademark Southern Wild energy and authenticity. Ironically, feeling nothing doesn't seem to be an option for these guys. Written by James Freemantle
