Wren + Wilde is a folk rock band based in the Twin Cities, anchored by the lush, breathtaking harmonies of leading ladies Hilary Yoder and Beth Olivares. Inspired by Laurel Canyon era acts, the band blends rootsy vocals, smokey southern rock grooves and soaring blues solos into a singularly captivating sound. Known for their fearlessly personal songwriting and disarming storytelling, Wren + Wilde invites audiences into a communal heartfelt experience. Emmy Woods (she/they) was born and raised on an old dirt road in rural North Dakota and currently resides in Saint Paul, Minnesota. With hints of country, folk, and blues, Emmy’s songs showcase her knack for storytelling, her strengths in musical artistry, and an impressive vocal range and ability. When asked to summarize her music in three words, Dr. Kyle Smith replied, “Queer Farm Vibes.”   While Emmy has been writing songs for over 20 years, her first collection of songs, tristia bella, as well as her albums The Manifold and Delirium were not released until March 2023. Since then, she has released three singles and and an EP with her band and continues to gain momentum with her genre bending sound.
