Wildfire - from the album "3: Little Pictures" by The Wealthy West.
During the height of the pandemic, we recorded Wildfire, a song I had written years ago-back in 2013-with Matthew Puckett (one of my favorite people to write with). It never really felt right on any of the other records. It was always too epic for the Wealthy West and too poppy for The Rocketboys. But finally with this record, it seemed like it had a place. I was working with some great musicians, and had a great mixer in mind to help bring it to life. It's funny looking back at these old videos of me and the guys tracking it at my house, and at Young Ave Sound, all while wearing our masks.
Not to overly-romanticize it, but it seems fitting, even inspired, to have gotten to work on this particular song while the world seemed to be a little more on fire than usual. I've always loved this song, and I'm so glad it's finally out there for all to hear. What are some ways your world has been on fire, JK, that just seemed like the thing you were supposed to say to get more engagement. I mean, feel free to tell me, and I will absolutely listen, and we'll get through it.
Thanks again for all the support. I've received so many messages and texts and the like from so many of you, and honestly, each one means so much to me.
