Lee Wilder - Sound Emporium
Lee Wilder’s debut album Sound Emporium is true to its title, channeling not only myriad music genres, but also influences from film, literature, and just life itself. Its ten songs of impassioned, gospel-flecked Americana are infused with danceable, sometimes bombastic grunge and pop sensibilities.
“I call it a bipolar gospel journey,” mulled Wilder from his northern Arizona home. “Just me struggling to be present, in the moment. I believe that the real source of creativity is in consciousness – and I just didn’t want to play safe anymore.”
