JJ Wilde Continues 2020 Rock Road Trip With Rival Sons and The Struts
Follows Tours With Jimmy Eat World And The Blue StonesWe are only a month into 2020 and JJ Wilde, who is currently on tour stateside with The Blue Stones and set to open for Jimmy Eat World in Canada this spring, just announced she will join Rival Sons and The Struts respectively this May/June on two additional tours.
It has been a year since JJ released her debut single “Wired”, which was featured on some of Spotify’s most prominent rock playlists, and her career has skyrocketed since then: she headlined her first U.S. tour supporting her debut EP Wilde Eyes, Steady Hands via BMG/BlackBox, her focus track “The Rush” has over 1 million streams on Spotify and was added to global playlists such as Rockin Vibes, Top Of The Rock, Fierce Femmes and Apple Music’s The New Rock, she opened for a plethora of modern rock royalty including The Glorious Sons, Incubus, The Struts, and Reignwolf, has been covered by American Songwriter, Paste, and Earmilk, was included in the lineup for BottleRock, Firefly, and Download festival this Summer, and is set to perform at SXSW.
She recently released her most vulnerable track yet “Funeral For A Lover,” a devastating ballad about contending with a significant other’s depression which led to American Songwriter singing her praises, saying her “voice is seriously so powerful I think she could cut down a tree by just singing at it” while Atwood Magazine said it was a “hauntingly honest and emotional depiction of depression’s impact.”
