"When I was drawing up the list, I wanted to start with an album that had come out in the last few years. I had a long list, maybe 50 albums, and there were some recent albums and tracks I’ve liked in the last few months. But, when I’m saying these are my favourite 13 albums that matter the most, I realised there wasn’t anything much from the last 15 to 20 years, which is a little sad to me. There are albums that I love - don’t get me wrong. I nearly included a Daft Punk album, as they changed things a little and I played that a lot when it came out. I thought The Killers’ debut album was a good record."

"Although I have been doing plays since I was eight-years-old, it was only when I started doing Shakespeare at age 19 at the Georgia Shakespeare Festival that I felt like my career started. I learned from master teachers at the University of Evansville, at Juilliard, at Shakespeare festivals all over the country, eventually landing at Shakespeare in the Park in NYC. That show transferred, so I got to make my Broadway debut doing “The Tempest” with Patrick Stewart. I owe so much to Shakespeare. Nothing is more humbling and more exhilarating than taking ahold of those sacred words and riding them like a wave. If I could only take one book to the island, this one would do just fine."

Atlantic Records recording artist Wilder Woods is back with a new single and music video to promote his upcoming debut LP. Electric Woman features a retro-soul melody combined with a slinky electronic groove, yielding a raw and understated homage to the female form delivered with a signature throwback-flair.

The music video stars Bear Rinehart’s wife, Mary Reames Rinehart, and gives listeners a peek at what real chemistry looks like between the young and beautiful. The canyons at sunset create a wistful backdrop for this exploration of honeymoon love, while Wilder Woods again joins his love of classic style with modern sounds, extending a perfect moment into the ether of collective experience. We are there also, dancing under the stars with our beloved.
