Album Of The Day: Curioso by Wilder Woods

Album Art of Wilder Woods's Curioso album - A photo of a man sitting on a nice chair in front of a bookshelf, though there's no books here. The top shelf is dozens of liquor bottles and dozens of shot glasses. The middle shelf has an NBA basketball, a baseball in a bowl, and cigarette ad that says 'Wilder Woods!', plus a bust that looks like a dark-skinned woman with a head covering. On the last shelf, there's about 30 records, maybe. The man is leaning back in a chair, wearing a T-shirt, and has a cowboy hat over his face. The man has a number of large rings on, a golden armband, and a number of tattoos on his arms. In the middle, the word 'Curioso' is printed in bright yellow.

Bear Rinehart is a prolific songwriter and the lead singer of a band called Needtobreathe. But he also releases music under the artist name Wilder Woods, and his third album as Wilder Woods releases today. Curioso feels like Bear is trying lots of things that he can't do in his main band. These songs feel more personal and he's able to stretch himself more artistically, maybe. It's a bit more romantic and less spiritual than Needtobreathe songs overall, and it's a bit more straight indie rock than the southern rock/country vibe of the other band. I like Wilder Wood's music, but none of his albums have really become regular spins so far. Though maybe I should see these songs played live next month....
