Original music

- ...I can still remember the way it used to be; careless with ambition; volatile and free… -

There was a time when Wonderlove was a celebrated band in Southern California, poised to break out. But instead, their lives fast forwarded to 2020, a year that brought them closer together than ever before - musically at least, since they were spread out over 3 states. The new album “All of the Nightmares” from Wonderlove is the opening of a capsule from an alternate timeline and seeing what time in isolation has created.

Wonderlove’s style has always been grounded in rock ‘n roll, while also encompassing many of the influences and offshoots: psychedelic, progressive, gospel, R&B - all of these are welcome. The tight interaction of Dicki Fliszar (drums) and Dave Beste (bass, classical guitar) give the foundation for the wall of sound generated by Jesse Nason (keys), Bryan McIntyre (guitar), and Chris Paul Overall (vocals). Their first album, “Getting Off the Revolution”, captured this lineup in their nascent form, with the last song on the album being the only one the band played together before recording. They quickly began work on their second album, “My Submarine”, which features intense arrangements honed from live performance. This album also brought them attention from the larger rock music scene. But the band had come to a fork in the road, and it seemed their collective paths would never converge again.
