Stepdad released their debut LP, Wildlife Pop, yesterday and have already received critical acclaim from FILTER and Vice. Wildlife Pop presents a creative leap forward for Stepdad, expanding their already massive pop sound. The band is excited to join The Warped Tour this summer, bringing their energetic live show across the country. Consequence of Sound says, “the music is multi-layered and addictive, and it speaks for itself…Wildlife Pop is as apt a title as one could imagine, invoking bubblegum trifles with a dash of the unexpected.”
