This Wild Life was formed in 2010 in Long Beach, CA. The duo has released three studio albums with Epitaph Records; Clouded (2014), Low Tides (2016), and Petaluma (2018). Produced by Ryan Hadlock (The Lumineers, Vance Joy), Petaluma presents itself as one of the band’s brightest and more uptempo offerings across its growing & celebrated catalog. “This album is the first record we made with a clear vision before the first song was ever written,” Jordan says. “Something with the dynamics and emotion we’ve always strived for, but within the bounds of a bright, warm, and organic sonic energy flowing through it.” In limiting the songs’ arrangements to only including instruments that can physically be played live, they opened the door to their most honest and explorative songwriting to date.
