WILD CHILD IN CONCERT:

Austin-based indie darlings Wild Child have quickly risen the ranks with their spirited, feel-good sound and the charming vocal interplay of dual vocalists Kelsey Wilson and Alexander Beggins. On tour the band treats ticket buyers to a rousing concert experience rooted in first-rate musicianship, combining violin, banjo, ukulele, and horns to fantastic effect. Whether they're getting fans bouncing with the brightly whistled chorus of "Crazy Bird" or slowing things down with the heartfelt "Pillow Talk", Wild Child always brings a vibrant energy to the stage that leaves ticket buyers feeling inspired.

BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:

Alexander Beggins and Kelsey Wilson started penning songs together during their time playing in the touring band The Migrant. They sketched tunes on a ukulele in the back of the tour van as the group traversed the country, and by the time they returned to Austin they already had enough material for an album. The band's 2011 debut album Pillow Talk was a blog sensation that attracted the attention of indie legend Ben Kweller, who produced their 2013 sophomore album The Runaround. That album was a huge critical success, earning an 8/10 from PopMatters and landing a track on NPR's Top Ten Songs of 2013 ("Living Tree"). Since then they've performed on the late-night TV circuit and wowed audiences at festivals around the country, drumming up excitement among fans for their upcoming shows.
