Anand Wilder

Singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Anand Wilder is best known as a co-founder of shape-shifting experimental indie rockers Yeasayer, whom he helped form in 2006 alongside longtime friend and creative co-conspirator Chris Keating. Sometime around 2008, Wilder began working on material with friend and fellow multi-instrumentalist Maxwell Kardon, whom he recorded with (among other notable guest performers) for the next several years. The resulting Break Line, an ambitious, full-blown rock musical about a Pennsylvania coal town, was released via Secretly Canadian in the summer of 2014. He released his first solo effort, the folk-rock-leaning I Don't Know My Words, in 2022.
