Artistic Encounters with Peter Wilde Band

In a word, Peter Wilde is fun. In two more, he’s soulful and real. There’s nothing pretentious, slick, or glossy. Engaging and entertaining, he attracts the salt of the earth to all they know to be true.

On his latest release, Natural Disasters, Wilde takes time with more common themes than he’s written in the past. There’s more of a big easy this go round than his previous releases which were ostensibly aimed at the hipster underground. Natural Disasters isn’t really folk. And it isn’t really Americana.

His music is a complex system that kind of defies how we define roots music, where it came from, what it signifies, and where it fits into contemporary music. But it gets to the root of the human experience and what we’ve all got in common.

Part of the Artistic Encounters series co-produced by Harmonic Laboratory and City of Eugene Cultural Services.
