Announces Third EP Life’s A Bitch Due Out March 21st 

26-Date North American Tour Supporting Spencer Sutherland

Kicks Off This Sunday, February 23rd

Los Angeles, CA – February 19, 2025 – Rising folk/Americana/pop artist Cloe Wilder has released her new single “Tallahassee” and announced her third independent EP, Life’s A Bitch, will be released on March 21st. “Tallahassee,” the EP’s opening track co-written with Theo Kandel and Jack Klein, is a song of transition, stemming from a falling out the 18-year-old singer-songwriter was experiencing in her life as she was moving from Florida to Los Angeles last year. PRESS HERE to listen. “Tallahassee” follows Wilder’s recent single “Cigarette,” also featured on Life’s A Bitch.

“I wrote ‘Tallahassee’ last year with Theo and Jack. It was our very first session together and it was total magic,” shares Wilder. “I was in the middle of moving to LA and I was experiencing a strange falling out with someone in my life. It was so shocking to me; I can usually see the end of a relationship coming. Theo and I were talking about my life and relationships, and I happened to mention Tallahassee, which is where I used to spend quite a bit of time. Then, it sort of grew into this intense breakup-fueled song. It was completely writing itself at that point. I always considered myself a pretty honest writer, but I think I reached a new height that day. I want every song to feel like ‘Tallahassee.’”

Life’s A Bitch is a 6-song collection that continues to showcase Wilder’s evolution as a songwriter and storyteller as she dives into the impending end of her teenagerdom with pure honesty and evocative, nostalgia-laden narratives. The universally-understood adulthood transition and her own personal life changes are captured on the EP as Wilder reflects on the past and takes the reins of her future. This is evidenced by the EP’s lead single “Cigarette,” a bit of a rebellious metaphor about a key period of teenage life, featuring a catchy chorus declaring, “I was holding my breath, I was counting to ten, I was trying my first ever cigarette. You were already gone, left me there with your friends.” The track was recently featured as a First Play on BBC Radio 1’s Future Pop, who hailed Cloe is “making the most gorgeous indie pop that you cannot help but love,” and has received playlisting love from Ones To Watch, Holler Country, DittyTV, The Indy Review, GRRRL Music, and more.

Wilder will support the release of Life’s A Bitch on the road touring North America supporting indie-pop singer/songwriter Spencer Sutherland, following their just wrapped European tour together. The 26-date trek kicks off this Sunday, February 23rd in Phoenix and will see Cloe and her band stopping everywhere from Dallas, Austin, St. Louis, Minneapolis, Chicago, Nashville, and Atlanta to Philadelphia, Boston, New York City, Toronto, Denver, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and San Diego, among many other cities, before reaching Santa Ana, California on April 8th to conclude the tour.

Cloe Wilder made her musical debut at just 14 years old releasing her first EP, Teenage Lullabies, in 2021. In a few short years, she’s amassed over 10 million total streams and media support from the likes of Ones To Watch, Just Jared, Wonderland, 1883 Magazine, and Stitched Sound, earning a reputation for her emotive songwriting and captivating melodies. Her ability to rasp or float over piano and guitar give, alternatively, feelings of groundedness and flight. Whether she’s being deeply introspective about her childhood or romanticizing the plainest conversation into a grand, meaningful moment, she doesn’t like to shy away from serious conversations. Wilder, who cites Lana Del Rey as a core influence, has also gained significant attention for her dynamic stage presence and heartfelt connection with audiences, receiving praise for her ability to weave together vibrant energy with relatable lyrics. Cloe Wilder is making her mark in the evolving landscape of indie/folk/pop music and is a name to watch in 2025.
