Event Details

LINCOLN, NEBRASKA (October 22, 2024) – Purity still exists in modern-day music. There’s the purity of real instruments – violin, acoustic guitar, upright bass, percussion, and even cello – coupled with homespun harmonies that magically float into the ether. Then, you have the purity of songs written from the soul that fill a human void. None of that ever goes out of style.

Folk-Americana trio The Wildwoods, hailing from Lincoln, Nebraska, continue to bring sonic beauty and simplicity to today’s increasingly complicated and cluttered musical landscape. With Dear Meadowlark, the band’s fourth full-length album set for official release April 11, 2025, The Wildwoods have once again taken the hallmarks of the folk-Americana sound and dressed it in indie sensibilities a la heroes Nickel Creek and Gillian Welch as well as genre mainstays Bon Iver and Mumford & Sons.

And yet, at its core, Dear Meadowlark is about three 20-something musicians celebrating the emotional allure of familiarity and comfort. “The main lyrical theme of the album is the appreciation for our home state of Nebraska and the homesickness that can come with long periods spent on the road,” says Noah Gose.

The Wildwoods have been road warriors for the last few years, and that will continue as a string of dates across 24 cities in advance of the new album have been confirmed and announced today, with many more to be added.  Several of the dates are in support of the acclaimed indie folk/Americana band TopHouse.
