Since releasing their debut album in 2020, Texas group The Wilder Blue (formerly known as Hill Country) has forged a distinct identity by blending Texas country sounds with lush, five-part harmonies. For their fifth album, Cinco, which came out Aug. 28, the group was eager to experiment with a new approach to album making–one that never strays from the group’s essence, but expands their sonic palette.

The group’s lead vocalist Zane Williams, along with bandmates lead guitarist Paul Eason, drummer Lyndon Hughes, bassist Sean Rodriguez and multi-instrumentalist Andy Rogers, augmented their own tight-knit musicianship by inviting outside players into the recording process. Hughes produced the album.
