Wild Flag is the bicoastal project of Portland, Oregon indie rock luminaries Carrie Brownstein, Janet Weiss, and Rebecca Cole, and Washington, D.C.’s <a href="spotify:artist:1FFaHFtnhdnHuY0xGZcnD1">Mary Timony</a>. Brownstein and Weiss are best known as two-thirds of <a href="spotify:artist:4wLIbcoqmqI4WZHDiBxeCB">Sleater-Kinney</a>, Cole as the drummer for the <a href="spotify:artist:7HNes0ULo1rDPIOAIc28uT">Minders</a>, and <a href="spotify:artist:1FFaHFtnhdnHuY0xGZcnD1">Timony</a> for <a href="spotify:artist:7mefbdlQXxJVKgEbfAeKjL">Helium</a> and her solo work, but these women have played together in different combinations over the years. Brownstein and <a href="spotify:artist:1FFaHFtnhdnHuY0xGZcnD1">Timony</a> released an EP in 2000 as <a href="spotify:artist:0lzS0oKkCT1qStEofNAmPh">the Spells</a>; Weiss and Cole play together in the Shadow Mortons, and <a href="spotify:artist:4wLIbcoqmqI4WZHDiBxeCB">Sleater-Kinney</a> toured with both <a href="spotify:artist:7HNes0ULo1rDPIOAIc28uT">the Minders</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:7mefbdlQXxJVKgEbfAeKjL">Helium</a>. Cole, Weiss, <a href="spotify:artist:1FFaHFtnhdnHuY0xGZcnD1">Timony</a>, and Brownstein began playing together as what would become Wild Flag in May 2010, but didn’t announce they were a band until that September. The group rounded out the year with songwriting, recording, and a tour of the Pacific Northwest and West Coast. By April 2011, Wild Flag joined with engineer Chris Woodhouse to record their self-titled debut album, and its release followed on <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Merge+Records%22">Merge Records</a> that September. The bandmembers' busy schedules and distance from each other ultimately led Wild Flag to disband in 2013. ~ Heather Phares, Rovi
