[https://www.wildmoccasins.net/]Fronted by Zahira Gutierrez
(vocals/keyboard) and Cody Swann (guitar/vocals) Wild Moccasins’
forthcoming third full-length serves as a new beginning for the group.
Look Together tackles themes of repairing relationships, shedding
insecurities, and fresh starts, with vibrant guitar/synth lines
layered under Gutierrez’s pop melodies. The impassioned 12-track LP
began to form merely a week after the release of 2014’s 88 92, as
Gutierrez and Swann’s decade-long romantic relationship dissolved.
Healing proved to be difficult, as Wild Moccasins were charted for two
years of extensive touring. Gutierrez and Swann would spend countless
hours in a sharedvan, painfully staring each other down on stage and
exchanging exaggerated hesaid-she-said’s through songwriting.
Gutierrez and Swann began their writing partnership roughly a year
into theirromantic relationship, in 2007. The group has undergone
roster changes over the years, but currently exists with the addition
of Avery Davis (drums) and original member Nicholas Cody (bass). Their
latest effort is highly pop-powered, with Ben H. Allen (Gnarls
Barkley, Deerhunter, Animal Collective) at the production helm.The
result is a diverse album that blends guitar-driven elements of Wild
Moccasins’ early discography with expansive electronic and '80s/'90s
pop components, culminating as a resilient break-up record co-written
by exes who chose to reconcile their differences the only way they
knew how – working towards a common musical goal
