Oh man, here we go: It gives me great joy to present you with the Wildlife EP, a new and absolutely free five song collection from Sims and myself. It is our way of saying thank you to everyone for the tremendous support you’ve shown us since the release of Bad Time Zoo. Click the cover below to start downloading!
Wildlife is a collection of five songs that we made over the course of the Bad Time Zoo sessions, that for whatever reason didn’t end up fitting onto that record. We’re gearing up to embark on the Good Time Zoo Tour (see what we did there?), Sims’ first ever headlining run, and wanted to give a little something back to all the people that have gotten us to this point. Please consider this free EP a thank you for your support that we so heavily rely on. Now all we ask is that you help us spread this record around like wildfire to your social circles and the internetz.

Alright, consider this Wildlife EP all of the Bonus Jams for the week (seriously click on that cover down below if you haven’t yet). I’ve been listening to nothing but Doomtree mixes for the last month, so I’m running out of cool new Jams to put at the bottom of these posts. I hope you all have a great week. See you next Tuesday!
