Tiring of life in Brooklyn, New York, DeWitt declined a promotion and instead resigned from his job in 2008 and moved to Nashville, Tennessee in order to concentrate on music. In a 2010 interview, DeWitt stated that he moved because "in Brooklyn, the price of living was such that you'd have to be working a full time job, and I found myself putting 50% effort into both that job and my music. Nashville allowed me to put 100% of my effort into music." For a number of years, he wrote film scores. He collaborated with director Aaron Katz on Dance Party USA, Cold Weather, and Quiet City. The last two were selected as New York Times Critics Picks.

In Nashville, DeWitt met multi-instrumentalist Jeremy Bullock, who had previously collaborated with Madi Diaz and Pico vs. Island Trees, and the two founded Wild Cub with Morris, West, and Wilson in early 2012.

The group's 13-song debut album Youth was self-released in January 2013 via Big Light Recordings; a deluxe version of the album with two new tracks was released on January 21, 2014 via Mom + Pop Music. Recorded in Bullock's home, it was well received in the UK and the US; Scott Kerr of AllMusic called it "jubilant, '80s-inspired synth pop and infectious". The lead single, "Thunder Clatter", was given a positive review by AllMusic but did not chart until August 2013, after it was used in a Bose commercial; it eventually reached number 59 on the UK Singles Chart.
