Wander

Wander is an all Filipino-American instrumental post-rock band based in the San Francisco Bay Area. Formed by brothers Ryan and Christian Francisco, Joseph Aguda, and Bernard Barcela, Wander presents a grand, cinematic soundscape, consisting of pristine arpeggiated clean guitars punctuated by heavy, groove-centered explosions. Their style flows seamlessly from serene to bombastic, from quiet contemplative stillness to angry, cathartic blasts of reverb-drenched, distortion-filled bliss. Since Wander's start in 2010, the band has released four full-length albums to date: Mourning (2016), Glass (2017), March (2019), and Home (2022) and have shared the stage with similar acts such as Tricot, El Ten Eleven, and Covet.

Their latest album HOME was inspired by the coastal beaches that are unique to California and derived from the experience of being present in the real world. The sonic landscape is expressed by the natural California lifestyle and cultivated by drive, intensity, & beauty.

Wander is scheduled to tour the West Coast with instrumental post-rock trio Infinity Shred this coming April & tour Europe with fellow instrumental quartet Where Mermaids Drown this coming May.
