Biography

A nine-piece band complete with horns, backing singers and the full spectrum of hairstyles, Wild Love Tigress plays hard-grooving modern funk music that combines high caliber musicianship with thoughtful songwriting. They put on a high-energy live show that always gets crowds up and dancing

The band’s self-titled studio album was released in the summer of 2022, and a follow-up is due in the spring of 2024 (two singles from that album, “Bendy King” and “I Plead the Fifth”, have already been released).

Newsworthy

“I am an avid listener of live music, but there are very few that wow me quite like WLT did. Bands like this are the type of music this country needs now. By the way they carried themselves on stage and the continuous flow of music, it was evident that they were in sync and well-rehearsed. The front man commands the audience with his movements and showmanship. It was hard for anyone in the Replay to stop themselves from dancing.”

-Review of WLT’s live show from KJHK in Lawrence, KS

We had our busiest year to date in 2023! We played 35 shows across the southwest highlighted by a sold-out show at Cervantes Theater in Denver, our first ever appearance at the historic Fox Theater in Boulder, and a headlining slot at the 25th Annual Edgewater Blues & BBQ for Better Housing Festival. As well as all our shows in Colorado, we played our longest tour to date as a summer tour through Kansas and Texas, where we met and played with incredible musicians and bands.

We released our first album, Wild Love Tigress, on vinyl for the first time. As long time vinyl listeners, having our songs on a record was a huge milestone. Since we introduced them, they have become a favorite merch item among our fans. We have been hard at work writing songs for our second studio album, and we can’t wait to share them with our fans! We released the singles “Bendy King” and “I Plead the Fifth” for that upcoming record.

2023 was such a learning year for us. Creating eye catching and engaging videos has been a new way for us to connect with our fans. It quickly became one of our favorite types of content to create. This year we pushed to release more videos than past years. We are extremely proud of our two most recent Youtube performance videos: If I Can’t Run live at Cervantes Other Side and Gin and Sin featuring Nik Parr from Nik Parr and the Selfless Lovers. Videos edited and produced by Wild Love Tigress’s own, Nicolas Killeen.

Tower of Power has been an inspiration for our band since its inception. It has always been the band’s dream, but especialy guitartist Anthony Felts’ dream, to have a five piece wall of sound horn section. In 2023, we welcomed saxophonist Andrew Gomez in the fold. Andrew adds so much to the band and horn section as technical and spirited musician. Three horns down. Two to go.
