Attaboy Releasing 'WILD' on Sept. 13
Leading school assemblies followed by evening, full-production concerts coast-to-coast and performing at camps during the summer months, Indiana-based pop/rock band Attaboy releases its sixth full-length and first Radiate Music album, WILD, Sept. 13.
Written by the Attaboy collective, consisting of Ryan Payne (vocals/guitar/piano), Jeff Edgel (guitar/piano), Melanie Morris (bass/background vocals) and Christian Morris (drums), and produced, engineered and mixed by Doug Weier (Anberlin, We Are Leo), WILD features the Parade.com-premiered anti-apathy track “Waking Up†and courage-inspiring single, “Fearless.â€
The album also features songs of surrender (“Let It Goâ€), determination “Dirty Lie (feat. Beacon Light),†commitment (“Never Going Backâ€), forgiveness (“Giving Up the Fightâ€), loneliness (“Disappearingâ€) and more songs that resonate with the band’s Generation Z / Post-Millennial audience.
“We’re called to a life that goes beyond what is safe and predictable; to a life that is wild and untamed. Think Aslan in The Chronicles of Narnia,†says Edgel. “WILD is a collection of songs that represent a wide spectrum of human experience.â€
Witnessing a ubiquitous longing for authentic social and spiritual connection, especially in the years they’ve spent touring coast-to-coast, singing, dancing and talking with young people, WILD channels infectious pop music that has landed Attaboy radio success and sustained years of full-time touring.
