British trio The Wandering Hearts burst onto the scene in 2015 after a chance introduction led to instant chemistry, a SoundCloud upload, and a record deal with Decca after just one gig. Fusing rich three-part harmonies with folk, Americana, and timeless songwriting, they quickly carved a space for themselves on both sides of the Atlantic.
Their debut album Wild Silence (2018) topped the UK Americana charts, earning widespread acclaim and the support of Bob Harris at BBC Radio 2. Their self-titled second album followed in 2021, delivering a second consecutive #1 and a UK Americana Awards nomination for Album of the Year.
Since then, The Wandering Hearts have toured extensively across the U.S., performing in over 30 states and sharing stages with Ruthie Foster, Lissie, and the late Justin Townes Earle. They’ve played landmark festivals including SXSW, Latitude, Bestival, Belladrum, Secret Garden Party, BST Hyde Park, and Black Deer Festival.
Praised for their soaring, world-class harmonies — echoing the likes of Fleetwood Mac, CSNY, and First Aid Kit — the band released their third album Mother in 2024 on Chrysalis Records. In 2023, their haunting cover of “Voices” featured on The Endless Coloured Ways: The Songs of Nick Drake, alongside AURORA, Feist, and Emeli Sandé. Their full reimagining of CSNY’s Déjà Vu drew acclaim from MOJO and Shindig!, praised for its “deep love and respect” and “artistic daring.”
The band holds the distinction of being the first British act to debut at both the Grand Ole Opry and the Ryman Auditorium in the same week — invited by country legend Marty Stuart after opening for him in the UK. They’ve since returned to the Opry stage three times and joined Stuart at London’s Royal Albert Hall for the Opry’s 100th anniversary celebration.
With three acclaimed albums, hundreds of shows, and a growing international fanbase, The Wandering Hearts — rooted in harmony, driven by heart.
