History[edit]
Formed in December 2010, This Wild Life began as a pop punk band with former members of the band The Messenger, which disbanded in July 2010. On May 7, 2013, it was announced that they would be recording with Copeland’s Aaron Marsh.[2][3] The change from a full band to an acoustic duo was because there was more attention to their acoustic songs, and acoustic songs are easier on Kevin Jordan's vocals. Although it was a difficult decision, the change opened them up to new opportunities.[4][5]On August 23, 2013, This Wild Life became part of The Artery Foundation. They were also added to Dave Shapiro's roster at The Agency Group, alongside other musicians such as A Day To Remember, Falling In Reverse, Pierce The Veil, Sleeping With Sirens, and The Wonder Years.[6] Dave Shapiro is the vice president of The Agency Group and co-founder of the Scream It Like You Mean It Tour.[7]On April 4, 2014, it was announced that This Wild Life was signed to Epitaph Records and will release their first full length album, 'Clouded' on May 27, 2014 with the song 'History' being the first single.[8][9][10][11][12] 'Clouded' was recorded with Aaron Marsh of Copeland.[13]
This Wild Life performed 'Roots and Branches' live on Episode 2 of Season 10 of The Bachelorette in a private concert at Santa Anita Park for Andi Dorfman and Chris Soules.[14][15]

Warped Tour sponsor, Alternative Press, featured This Wild Life in the 'AP&R' section of its October 2013 (#304) issue,[23] in the '100 Bands You Need to Know in 2014' section of its April 2014 (#309) issue,[24] and in the 'AP Recommends' section of its June 2014 issue (#312).[25] Discovered Magazine also featured the band in their January 2014 (#18) issue.[26]

Clouded is one of the more unique albums to be released in awhile and is a strong release from one of the best up-and-coming bands.'[28]The first single is 'Over It'.

Petaluma[edit]
On May 2, 2018 This Wild Life and both band members Kevin Jordan and Anthony Del Grosso announced on their social media accounts that they will be releasing a new album titled Petaluma. Kevin Jordan has said that 'this album is the first record we made with a clear vision before the first song was ever written. Something with the dynamics and emotion we've always strived for, but within the bounds of a bright, warm, and organic sonic energy flowing through it.' Along with the announcement of the release of the new album, This Wild Life also released a single called 'Westside'. Kevin Jordan stated that 'Westside' is a song I've wanted to write for many years but never knew how, since its inspiration isn't my story to tell. Sexual assault isn't something many people are comfortable talking about, and my perspective in the song is from a person supporting a loved one who's experienced it.' Petaluma was released on June 22, 2018 in both the United States and Europe.[31]

Hailing from Long Beach, CA, This Wild Life is duo Kevin Jordan and Anthony Del Grosso. Jordan and Del Gross grew up in the tightknit DIY punk scene in Long Beach. They quickly became friends after working at the same musical instrument store, bonding over music of their teens. The conversations were about hardcore, punk and scream bands such as Thursday, The Used, and Senses Fail. Soon enough, they started their own pop-punk band and made music together as This Wild Life. They played fast, they played loud and they didn’t stand out from the crowd until they did the least “punk” thing possible. It was also bolder than anything in the punk rock rulebook: they got quiet and played acoustically.
The music itself connected with fans, even as it surprised them. They take pride in making music based in hardcore and punk rock, but with wider appeal. In contrast to the harsh music that This Wild Life grew up on, Jordan finds inspiration for his vocals outside the hardcore punk world. “Sara Bareilles is one of my favorites. Maybe people wouldn’t expect that. Or maybe they would,” he laughs.
A big part of who they are as a band is to remain true to their DIY punk ethic. After shows are played, tweets responded to and comments acknowledged online. The band put in the work to gain the support of their fan base. Now, This Wild Life has an army of 80K YouTube subscribers with videos of over 2.75 million views.
Clouded is their debut full-length and was recorded with Aaron Marsh of Copeland. Clouded maintains the core attributes of their sound – Jordan’s vulnerable, expressive lyrics, DelGrosso’s nimble fingerpicking – while pushing themselves towards more ambitious sounds. “We tried out a string section, pianos, different kinds of guitars, we didn’t want to limit ourselves,” Jordan notes.
Clouded is the triumphant result of years marked by small triumphs, big struggles and countless floor shows, bringing This Wild Life’s heartfelt, melodic and acoustic punk-rock to a bigger audience they’ve earned.
