Last year saw Wild Nothing release their fourth album Indigovia Captured Tracks and they recently returned to the road for a few East Coast dates to wind down the final leg of the tour in support of the album.
We previously caught their headlining performance at Brooklyn Steel last November and almost a year to the day the band returned for a more intimate showing at Elsewhere on November 20th.
Frontman/brainchild Jack Tatum has continued to push Wild Nothing’s sound forward over the years, outlasting many of the acts who took of in the blogosphere and found a way to make the sound not only rich and rewarding but still keeping the DNA and trademark qualities that made their music so endearing in the very first place. They played a handful of cuts from the new album which soared to great heights live (especially “Letting Go”) along with a slew of old favorites which took a new shape live this time around (“Chinatown,” “Summer Holiday,” “Shadow”).
Find a full gallery of photos from their performance, along with opener Kate Bollinger, posted in the gallery below along with Wild Nothing’s setlist.
