Slow Cozy / Lone Wild

Nashville’s eclectic indie rock act Lone Wild originated under another name in Oklahoma in the 2010’s. In 2018, Lone Wild released his debut singles “Danger Cat” & “Stranger Ways” when Ashkan Karimi (producer/singer) emerged from the studio after recording songs left untouched over the years. Establishing a rep for groovy, 80’s inspired, bombastic rock, Lone Wild met 2019 with a debut self-titled record, and a number of shows.

Moving to Nashville, TN in 2020 around the flurry of a pandemic & the drama of a U.S. election, Karimi escaped to write new music. Building on the previous album’s momentum, from ‘20-23 Karimi wrote his next album as a commentary on the current world around him, and an introspective look on how his upbringing and the world has shaped him. Tapping more into a psych-pop slant dosed in personal vulnerability, Lone Wild released stand-out singles "Tryna Make Sense of It", “Locktup”, & "Space Between"  garnering songs for his sophomore album “Free Yourself” (July  7, 2023). 

With 2 albums of genre-spanning tracks under his belt, Lone Wild looks forward to sharing his songs in rooms with people who have felt unseen, and misunderstood.
