WOLFJAY
THEY ARE
An idiosyncratic indie-pop powerhouse who’s very quickly gearing up to cannonball into the mainstream. Their lovably lush soundscapes are layered with crunchy percussion, dreamy synths and heady, honeyed guitars. It’s the solo project of Adelaide’s brilliant Jack Alexander, and we honestly have a hard time believing one person alone can create such rich and rousing material. THEY SOUND LIKE
The walk home after a first date where the dinner was scrumptious, conversation bloomed and the two of you got along like a house on fire. Wolfjay has good vibes on tap. YOU’LL DIG THEM IF YOU LIKE
M83, The Midnight and The Cure. You’re reading about them in a guitar mag, of course, but it’s honestly the twinkly, pseudo-melancholic electronica vibes that stand out most in Wolfjay’s discography. If you have a soft spot for synthpop or like to mellow out with a bit of progressive house, you’ll likely find that the drawcard for this mind-melting multi-instrumentalist. YOU SHOULD CHECK OUT
The kaleidoscopic new single “In Memory Of”, which runs for just shy of three minutes but feels impossibly short. The moody cut canters along with a chill, droning melody that’s far too easy to lose yourself in, bright and buzzy guitar lines keeping the beat afloat until they culminate in a big, beautiful solo.
