Tapping the intoxicating grooves of 80s funk, the sensual colors of R&B, and the driving pulse of Chicago House, Wake the Wild is an LA based trio of lifelong friends that fuses funky live instrumentation with electronic, nu-disco & funk music. Since their debut EP “Guilty Pleasures,” they gained traction from Spotify editorial playlists such as Butter, Young & Free, Serotonin, Nu-Funk, and Coffee Club, and have also landed synchs on Netflix, MTV, BET, ABC and Peacock.  Somewhere in between Jungle, Silk Sonic, Disclosure and SG Lewis, their signature sound coined “Retro Future” is all about inclusivity and good vibrations.  True to their name, the live show is an unforgettable experience. With effortless mastery as multi-instrumentalists on drum set, double neck bass/guitar, synths and vocals, the band transports audiences to a dimension without inhibitions
