***WILD FLAG is a Portland, Oregon and Washington, DC-based quartet consisting of CARRIE BROWNSTEIN, REBECCA COLE, MARY TIMONY and JANET WEISS. The members of Wild Flag have played in numerous and notable bands including SLEATER-KINNEY, HELIUM, QUASI, THE MINDERS, STEPHEN MALKMUS AND THE JICKS, and others. The four musicians who make up Wild Flag have known one another for well over a decade; playing together felt almost inevitable. Brownstein and Weiss were in Sleater-Kinney and toured with Timony’s band Helium on numerous occasions. Brownstein and Timony played in a side project called THE SPELLS. Rebecca Cole’s Portland-based band The Minders was a frequent opener for Sleater-Kinney. Weiss and Cole play together in the 1960’s garage-rock cover band The SHADOW MORTONS. After collaborating on a score for a documentary, the ease with which they worked together proved infectious and promising. Wild Flag was formed. In April 2011, they went to Sacramento, California, where they recorded their self-titled album with engineer CHRIS WOODHOUSE at the Hangar. All tracks were recorded live except for the vocals.
