Oliver Wilde

Oliver Wilde (born 21 October 1988 in Swindon, Wiltshire), is an English musician, poet and producer now based in Bristol, England. Noted for his unique bedroom production sound and lo-fi style, fusing folk, electronica, laptop pop and indie coupled with a melancholic, hushed poetic vocal delivery, Oliver Wilde released his first album A Brief Introduction To Unnatural Lightyears in July 2013 via Bristol indie label Howling Owl Records. The album gained huge critical acclaim from the likes of The Guardian, labelling the album "astonishing" and NME, who described him as "a Nick Drake For The 21st Century". The album was placed No.14 on the website Albumsoftheyear.org for 2013. In November that year, Wilde and his band were invited to BBC 6 Music to do a live session for DJ Marc Riley, and in January 2014 aired a new live session on Huw Stephens' BBC Radio 1 show.
