Catch Wilderado tonight and tomorrow with Mt. Joy.
Rainer, along with guitarist and vocalist Tyler Wimpee and drummer Justin Kila, hails from Tulsa, but he says Wilderado really came together in Los Angeles clubs, bars and festivals. “We only really play Tulsa on tour,” he says. “It’s kind of an interesting approach. And we’ve been gone so much that it’s been difficult to really even go out and immerse ourselves in it.”
Although he doesn’t feel a deep connection to the Tulsa music scene, that’s something Rainer would like to change. During the touring gap at the height of the COVID lockdowns, he was able to take in some music from his hometown. “We started going to bars, meeting more bands, seeing more bands,” he says. “I want to be a Tulsa band. I want to be a part of the art and culture of Tulsa.”
Rainer says the songs on Wilderado's first full-length deal with the challenges of always being on the road as a touring band. He estimates that in the last year, he’s been home 100 days. It’s a brutal schedule — so much so that he felt a sense of relief when the pandemic forced him to stay home for more than a year.
“Now that we are back on the road, we are kind of like what everyone else seems to be — aware of how nice it is to not be on the road,” he says. “We didn’t have any perspective of how much we travel until we had eighteen months of not traveling.”“We’re heavily aware of the fact that the band is growing,” Rainer says. “People are connecting with the music, and we are sharing this thing with strangers, which is a big goal of mine.
Wilderado, with Mt. Joy, 8 p.m. Wednesday, August 17, Red Rocks Amphitheatre, 18300 West Alameda Parkway, Morrison,
