Alt-rock quartet The Wrecks ended their busy 2020 on a high note, with the release of
their new EP, Static. The four-song collection offers everything from upbeat dance tracks to
ballads about longing for that one special person.
The release of Static follows up The Wreck’s debut full-length album Infinitely Ordinary,
released earlier this year via Big Noise. Led by vocalist/producer Nick Anderson and
rounded out by Aaron Kelley (bass), Nick “Schmizz” Schmidt (guitar), and Billy Nally
(drums), The Wrecks created an album that jumps from the anxiety-inducing “Freaking
Out” to the self-sabotage anthem “Fvck Somebody,” the heart-pounding “Out Of Style,” to
the introspective ballad title track - and throughout it all, Anderson had one goal in mind.
“Music has to be honest for me, before anything else,” he says. “All of our songs are through
stories, the anecdotes all happened—that’s the only way I know how to write something that
feels impactful.”
Their long-awaited debut LP “Infinitely Ordinary” released May 1st, 2020 is the follow up to
their two EPs; the first, “We Are The Wrecks,” was recorded just days after their conception,
as they snuck into a studio where a friend was house sitting. Having no experience
recording or mixing, Anderson took a crash course via YouTube tutorials, and sent their first
song, “Favorite Liar”, to Jeff Regan at SiriusXM’s AltNation.
“Favorite Liar” was immediately added to his playlist, resulting in the #1 spot on the Alt18
Countdown, months of charting in the countdown’s Top 5, and the band’s first Top 40
Alternative Radio hit. “Favorite Liar” currently has over 21 million streams on Spotify.
The second EP titled “Panic Vertigo” included the fan-favorite track “JamesDean” which has
racked up 5.1 million streams to date.
With a high-energy, crowd - captivating live set, The Wrecks have built a reputation as a top
live band, securing support tours with Nothing But Thieves, New Politics, The Maine, The
Hunna, and Silversun Pickups, as well as selling out multiple headlining tours.
