Wolf People
Last updated: 10 hours ago
The brainchild of singer and guitarist <a href="spotify:artist:12PXtex4JPN5PxTyLOzk2J">Jack Sharp</a>, Wolf People started in 2005 when <a href="spotify:artist:12PXtex4JPN5PxTyLOzk2J">Sharp</a> recorded a demo album in the English town of Bedford. Named after the children’s book Little Jacko and the Wolf People, the band is a throwback to the bluesy psychedelia of <a href="spotify:artist:5M52tdBnJaKSvOpJGz8mfZ">Black Sabbath</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:74oJ4qxwOZvX6oSsu1DGnw">Cream</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:1CD77o9fbdyQFrHnUPUEsF">Traffic</a>, and early <a href="spotify:artist:6w6z8m4WXX7Tub4Rb6Lu7R">Jethro Tull</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:2LIdnZDzySb04oH40be1fR">Fairport Convention</a>, tackling the sounds of the past with a kind of nostalgic reverence. To fill out the lineup, <a href="spotify:artist:12PXtex4JPN5PxTyLOzk2J">Sharp</a> recruited drummer Tom Watt, guitarist Joe Hollick, and bassist Dan Davies. The band released a few singles and EPs before pulling off a bit of a coup on the other side of the pond, becoming the first British band to sign to the indie label <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Jagjaguwar%22">Jagjaguwar</a>. Wolf People had a busy release year in 2010, putting out both the Tidings collection and their first proper album, Steeple. The more theatrical and psych-touched sophomore album Fain arrived in 2013, followed in 2016 by the aptly named Ruins, a fuzzed-out and heady set of ruminations on nature reclaiming the land. ~ Gregory Heaney, Rovi
