What Are You Waiting For

we are young
so we untie
we are young
we get tired

walking on rooftops, feel so heavy
I could never leave you if you let me try
go on and let me try

steady now
but falling slack,
stepping out
but falling back

under-passing all your dreaming
I'll admit feeling a little uneasy about
you want to cut me out

just one more take
I'm still feeling my way
still feeling my way

we are caught
so we unwind,
we are caught
till we untie

talk about leaving here together
one more try it'll all get better I doubt
you want to work it out

just one more take
I'm still feeling my way
still feeling my way

Little Uneasy

Frederick The Younger on WFPK's Live Lunch - 1/29/16

I wrote a song on a broken guitar
and I played it for them
they told me it was out of touch
but I thought I had my finger on the pulse
of the nation's youth, of a girl like you,
of a few home truths I thought you already knew

I wrote a song on a broken guitar
in the house with the broken A.C.
and it was pouring out of me
and I know you're gonna think it's all about you
cause you don't care about the truth
I know you only ever wanna feel good

as the party dwindled, I heard Broken Social Scene
on a hi-fi stereo

she slipped from my hands and fell to the floor
couldn't stand for me to touch her anymore
my baby broke her back trying to get away
the broken record tried to play

it was an RCA, I had a lot to say
but I couldn't get it out
so I was dry-heavin'
I was barely breathin'
in the wet death of a summer day

I wrote a song on a broken guitar
and it was gonna be an instant classic
only the kids, they'd never catch it
you know they only ever wanna feel good

as the party dwindled, I heard Broken Social Scene
on a hi-fi stereo
and it was an RCA, it was an RCA
and I had a lot to say
but I couldn't get it all out
so I was dry-heavin'
I was barely breathin'
in the wet death of a Summer day
(and all on a broken guitar!)

and they told me it was out of touch
I thought I had my finger on the pulse

Rejecting the constrictions of genre, Shadwick Wilde’s songs touch each other’s edges, but each brings its own distinct vision, strung together by the common thread of Wilde’s muscular poetry, emotive vocals, and unique style of upside-down, left-handed guitar playing.  

Shadwick grew up in San Francisco, Havana, and Amsterdam astride his mother, an activist, poet, and filmmaker.  At 18, Wilde left high school for an invitation to go on tour as a guitarist for D.C. hardcore band Iron Cross, of Dischord notoriety.  

At age 23, Wilde entered an addiction recovery program, where he would write Unforgivable Things (2010), his first effort as a solo artist.  The self-released demo would go out of print and disappear, but by this time Wilde had gone on to form Quiet Hollers as an outlet for his songwriting.  Since 2013, the shapeshifting indie rock collective have released four LPs, toured Europe twice, and criss-crossed North America ad nauseam. 

In 2020, Wilde wrote three albums of new material, recording one of them (Forever Home) with  producer and former Wilco drummer Ken Coomer, along with a cast of top Nashville session players.  Another LP he recorded alone, on the Kentucky farm where he lives with his partner, psychologist and visual artist Sarah French-Wilde, and their young daughter.  The third, Forever Chemicals, released in January 2022 under the Quiet Hollers banner.
