Moline, Illinois-based folk artist Wilhelm presents his new album, Wake Me in the Sunrise. Wilhelm is the solo project of the frontman of Murnau and The House Flies, who released his debut album, Lace, in 2019. His latest release, Wake Me in the Sunrise, is a remarkable nine-track project that blends elements of acoustic rock, lofi-folk, and emo rock. Simplistic recordings of dusty acoustic melodies and moody vocals provide an array of somber soundscapes. The artist’s minimal approach to recording on a 4-track Tascam lends to the intimate nature of the music. The album is a testament to Wilhelm’s ability to connect with his listeners on an emotional level. Wilhelm’s new album, Wake Me in the Sunrise, is a compelling folk alum and the perfect addition to any indie playlist.
