Wild Cub

Wild Cub -- led by singer/songwriter/film score composer Keegan DeWitt and Nashville music mainstay Jeremy Bullock (Jessie Baylin, Madi Diaz) -- made their official debut at SxSW this year at the Billy Reid/KSwiss Shindig. The young band officially forming last November, came together after touring around DeWitt's prior solo releases, including headlining runs; as part of Daytrotter's 4th Barnstormer tour (Sondre Lerche, Guards, White Rabbits, & Princeton); supporting Jeremy Messersmith; & at Communion New York. Nashville Cream has praised Wild Cub's "intricate melodic pop": "...don't ask how, but the Chris Martin-meets-'Bastards of Young' melody on the first of three new songs hit that elusive sweet spot of melody plus sing-along that every pop-based band should aim for." Wild Cub is currently putting the finishing touches on their debut LP, recorded in a makeshift studio in Bullock's home and due out later this summer.
