Biyografi

After a series of self-releases and home recordings, Brooklyn's Wilder Maker came to national attention via their Saddle Creek 7” New Streets in 2017 and released their label debut Zion with Northern Spy Records in 2018, receiving praise from Stereogum, Vice, Fader, and Pitchfork along the way. Ask songwriter Gabriel Birnbaum what inspired Male Models – the band's diverse new album – and he’ll mention everything from American novelist James Salter and the NBA playoffs to Thin Lizzy and the delicate tightrope of positive masculinity. Together these references points provide some insight into the creation of an album that somehow succeeds at being both an apocalyptic novel of ideas and the most cohesive party playlist that you’ve ever heard. The music of Male Models was recorded live over several days with a core band that consisted of Birnbaum and longtime collaborators Nick Jost and Sean Mullins. Despite his role as frontman and principal songwriter, Birnbaum’s voice can only be heard singing lead on seven of the twelve songs. The remaining tracks have guests taking the mic, unveiling an impressive lineup that includes Counting Crows Adam Duritz, Katie Von Schleicher, and Jordan Lee (aka Mutual Benefit). Like guests at a strange afterparty, when you hear these accomplished vocalists recount Birnbaum’s tales of unrequited love, drunkenness, and desperation, it feels almost voyeuristic, as if you were sitting in a crowded cocktail bar, sneaking glances at nearby tables.
