***Silk scarves hung from back pockets, keys under mats, messages in bottles, bells on trees, clacking stilettos, hot wet pavement, and bird song are cruising technologies and transit mysteries, some fleeting, others devouring, and still others remote, proposed in Wild Nights!, HELLO BLUE ROSES’ fourth album and third on JAZ Records. Wild Nights! was recorded and produced lovingly by JOSHUA WELLS and SYDNEY HERMANT, alongside bandmates, JULIA CHIRKA and JASON ZUMPANO over the course of 2019.
