"Wild Iris could become one of the premier new discoveries on country music" -RecordJournal.com "Wild Iris’s self-titled, full length release is an eclectic, 13-track listening experience that casts a large net. The duo’s use of a variety of instruments is inspiring and comes together to create a sound that is beautiful in its originality and honesty. Coming from different backgrounds, Mullikin and Shelton manage to touch on various genres including folk, blues, country, and Americana with a touch of pop, ensuring there is something for everyone and validating the old saying that music brings us all together." -IndieMinded.com "The duo evinces an earnestness and familiarity that make you pause and reassess what you've just heard. The music takes on a deeper and fuller emotional resonance with each listen and creates an atmosphere of humble introspection before jumping up and wandering farther down the road." -Nooga.com "The enthusiasm of the track [Mine All Mine] is infectious; there’s no way for me to not tap my feet and smile." -IndependentClauses.com Performers: Kate Mullikin: Vocals on all tracks Bryan Shelton: Guitar on all tracks Elliott Kay: Mandolin on track 3 Lucas Heinel: Percussion on tracks 1, 2, 4-7, 10, 11, 13 Kai Kopecky: Bass on tracks 1-6, 8, 10, 11, 13 Ben Lila: Banjo on tracks 1, 4, 6, 10, 11 Phil Brezina: Fiddle on tracks 1, 2, 4 Jamie Coffis: Hammond Organ on tracks 2, 13 Andy Zenczak: Harmonica on tracks 7, 8, 13 & baritone guitar on track 6 Barry Phillips: Cello on track 6 Samuel Curtis: Piano on track 5 Produced, engineered and mixed by Andy Zenczak at Gadgetbox Recording Studio in Santa Cruz, CA.
