Reviews

Wild Light: Adult Nights

By Michael Kabran

From the state that birthed Mandy Moore and Ronnie James Dio comes a band that’s surprisingly fit to rule indie pop -- of all genres -- at least for a little while. [6 March 2009]

Wild Light + Birdfeeder

By Jennifer Kelly

Like all good pop, Wild Light’s songs are open to multiple interpretations… on the record they are clearly melancholy, yet live they are celebratory enough to dance to. [28 January 2009]
