Bio

Temple Wildlife is an indie rock band from Nashville, Tennessee. Focusing on the balance between pop and alternative, the band’s sound brings together swelling synths, spacey guitars, ‘80s vibes, and unique textures to tie it all together. Their dedication and attention to detail can not only be heard in their recordings, but experienced in their live show.

Created in 2016, Temple Wildlife founders Adam Griffith (Baton Rouge, LA) and Jared Evers (Portland, OR) met each other in Nashville. After countless hours and a myriad of long nights spent in Evers' studio (a glorified basement), their lamenting over five songs concluded. They began tracking.

Late nights and entire weekends were spent tracking their first album. Since both Evers and Griffith had to work day jobs, they spent any leftover time in the studio, meticulously pouring over the EP.

Other than a few friends collaborating with instruments, every song has been produced and engineered entirely by Griffith and Evers. You can hear influences like Bon Iver, Radiohead, The Killers, Local Natives, and Sigur Rós. You may even notice subtle (or not-so-subtle) nods to ‘80s and New Wave influences.
