Wet Eyed Liars Biography
WET EYED LIARS, from Bowling Green, Kentucky, are a musical embodiment of glittering sadness who get their thrills from making dreamy grooves while riding the glittering griffin into the flaming moon. WEL's sound is a melancholy brew of dreamy, spacious indie-rock with powerful female vocals, bluesy guitar, catchy hooks, and a tight, booming rhythm section.
WEL formed in the rainy fall of 2015 when drummer Joshua Riddle and his soon-to-be wife, Melissa, decided to play her acoustic songs with a full band:
Joshua: My other band had just broken up, and I was looking for a new band to play with. Melissa always played these beautifully haunting acoustic songs around the house, and I kept hearing them in my head with a full band. But Melissa had no interest in being in a band or performing on stage. I told her we should get with a couple of friends to flesh the songs out just for fun, and also so I could have something to practice drums to; she agreed.
Melissa: It started out as just a fun jam session. We got together a few times and put together arrangements for four or five of mine and our guitarist, John's, songs. Halloween was coming up, and the boys decided to throw a party at our practice space. Then, a few weeks before the party, they decided we should play our songs live. Reluctantly, and only because I could hide behind a Halloween costume, I agreed to do this once. We've been playing shows ever since.
Wet Eyed Liars have built a strong cult following in a short amount of time and recently finished recording their second album Conversations We’ve Never Had at Thunder Sound Studios in the intimate backwoods of Franklin, KY.
