Wildwood Kin (from the album Wildwood Kin available on Silvertone Records)
Before formally hanging out a musical shingle and doing business as Wildwood Kin, the three voices that form the core of the band had a smaller audience in themselves. The harmony is what hooked the sisters (Beth and Emillie Key) and cousin (Meghann Loney), the three would harmonize, the goal to hit any musical note that passed them through radiowaves, television, or the sounds around them in their home of Southwest UK. With their harmonies firmly in place to create an audio environment unique to Wildwood Kin, the trio set another goal on their recent self-titled debut, to showcase their ideology alongside their vocal abilities. Wildwood Kin light torches with their words for like-minded souls, beginning the message on opening cut “Never Alone”, the trio promising loyalty and inspiration for a community seeking change. Bordering the track, the exit tune for Wildwood Kin focuses its worldview down to a one-on-one conversation with “How It Feels”. A stuttering melody line runs underneath “Signals” as a pattern of repetitive rhythms herald the percussive announcements of “Time Has Come”.
 
Throughout Wildwood Kin is a constant hum, percussion the sweet spot center of each song, a determined patter freckled with guitar notes surrounding “The Crown”, supportive words for “Beauty in the Brokenness” held up by guitar strums riding shotgun on a non-stop beat, and a heartbeat rhythm coaxing “Wake Up Sleeper” with clouds of electric sonics. While the harmonies are the first contact seduction, the stance of the band, whether in their sense of self or commitment to encouraging a little revolution with words and music, is where to find the heart of Wildwood Kin. Soft rhythms become the current as the harmony of Wildwood Kin bobs like leaves in the stream on “Breathe” while the trio wander “Headed for the Water” on dark thoughts and a somber trance groove.
