Wild Cub are an American five piece, based in Nashville, with a jubilant synth-pop 80's sound that proves ridiculously infectious, even after the first listen.
I stumbled upon this band for the first time a couple of months back when I heard their debut album's lead single Thunder Clatter on a Bose advert during the summer. With the help of the trusty 'Shazam' app, I became completely and utterly obsessed. Seriously, if you haven't already heard this song, please YouTube it, right now.
However, Thunder Clatter isn't just a one off, Wild Cub have a whole host of shimmering catchy tunes that will leave you with a massive smile on your face. Their debut album, which was released in January of last year is full to the brim with summer anthems including Jonti, Wishing Well and Hidden in the Night to name but a few.
I actually had the pleasure of seeing Wild Cub play live at The 1975 gig at Manchester academy last Wednesday (which was a very pleasant surprise!) and they certainly didn't disappoint.
The material I have heard from this band so far has been absolutely brilliant and it's always a good sign when you can replay a song over and over again without getting bored, (which is the case with many of Wild Cub's tracks) I have extremely high hopes for the future of this band.
Wild Cub's debut album 'Youth' is out now.
