About THE WRECKS:
Los Angeles-based indie rock band The Wrecks root from Thousand Oaks, CA. The group consists of Nick Anderson (vocals/guitar), Nick Schmidt (guitar), Westen Weiss (guitar), Aaron Kelley (bass), and Billy Nally (drums). Heavily influenced by groups such as The Pixies, The Strokes, Weezer, and Vampire Weekend, this 5-piece isn’t afraid to blend undeniably catchy choruses, with self-deprecative, honest lyrics and vocals that pull you right to the center of each song.
The homemade “We Are The Wrecks” EP was self-released in March 2016. After hundreds of spins on Sirius XM’s Alt Nation, and features on some of Spotify’s biggest rock playlists, the band signed to Another Century/Sony Music in December of 2016. Their debut single “Favorite Liar” broke the Top 40 on alternative radio, has over 6 million plays on Spotify, and spent almost a dozen weeks in the top 10 of Alt Nation’s Alt-18 Countdown. After signing their record deal, The Wrecks sought out to record a new EP in Los Angeles. 3 weeks into recording, and after blowing almost the entire EP budget, the band decided the music was going in the wrong direction and threw the EP away.
“I just felt that we had strayed too far from the core of the band’s sound,” says frontman Nick Anderson. “It sounded like we were trying really hard to get on the radio or something, and I feel like that rarely gets you on the radio anyway.” So after getting their label and management on board, The Wrecks decided to move into Anderson’s grandmother’s house in his small hometown (Wellsville, NY) to work on the new record in a barn studio that their friend Patrick Barry owns. Co-produced again by Nick Anderson and Andrew D’Angelo, The Wrecks say their new upcoming EP “comes from a genuine place, and is something we’re all truly proud of.”
