Wild Bores

Diverse Rock/Pop

About Me

Wild Bores is an American rock/pop band, which is the solo project of singer-songwriter John Whildin. This month he will release Re-Introducing Wild Bores, a full-length album that mixes a dynamic blend of influences and collaborations from two distinct music scenes, Whildin’s home town of Chicago, and Nashville where he lives today.

The music of Wild Bores is characterized by underlying rock/pop rhythms couching catchy melodies and lyrics that breathe new life into everyday experiences. Whildin’s warm and honest vocal style connects the songs of Wild Bores to the listener, while providing a strong sense of familiarity.
