The Wild Feathers

Nashville, Tennessee's Wild Feathers prefer the term "American" over Americana when describing their sound, which falls somewhere between the earnest, neo-Southern rock of the Black Crowes, the bluesy swagger of the Black Keys, and the wide-open-road country-rock of the Eagles. The group's eponymous debut drew largely from classic rock and country, while 2016's Lonely Is a Lifetime bristled with modern touches and big production values. The band continued to refine their Southern rock, Americana, blues, and folk-tinged sound on subsequent efforts Greetings from the Neon Frontier (2018), Alvarado (2021), and the Shooter Jennings-produced Sirens (2024).
