Wilson Introduces “All My Friends”

DETROIT ROCKERS WILSON STREAM NEW SONG

“ALL MY FRIENDS” EXCLUSIVELY WITH METAL HAMMER

New Album Right To Rise Out June 30th

Band To Tour With Nothing More

Riot inducers Wilson have premiered their new song “All My Friends” exclusively with Metal Hammer. The fiery song is off their upcoming album, Right To Rise, set for release on June 30th on Razor & Tie. The band’s sophomore album was produced by Johnny Andrews (Halestorm, All That Remains, Three Days Grace). Pre-order the album now on iTunes, Google Play, and Amazon.

Wilson recently wrapped up a UK/European tour with Halestorm and Nothing More and will bring their high energy show to North America with Nothing More starting May 31st (tour dates below).

“All My Friends” is a ferocious monster of a song, the quintessential anthem for anyone who has experienced difficult friendships. The battering ram of riffs and shredding packs a hard punch that’s just as hard hitting as the rest of Right To Rise. When it came time to write their second full-length album Wilson didn’t have to look far for inspiration. The bands relatable lyrics and unique identity shine through on Right To Rise, the band explains, “Right to Rise is the creation of tones, melody, and soul. We were able to capture the moments and feelings taking place in both the studio and our everyday lives. Throughout this record, you can almost smell the blood on the drumheads and the temperature of the room when the amps were running extra hot.”

Wilson has come a long way since their bombastic, brash, and ballsy 2013 full-length debut album, Full Blast Fuckery. Through grass roots efforts and non-stop touring the band emerged on to the scene with a raucous, raw, and righteous rock sound that saw them become a live favorite.  Bringing the party to their shows, Wilson has shared the stage with everybody from Black Label Society and Down to Five Finger Death Punch and Motörhead. Finishing up a touring whirlwind, the group decided to approach the creative process for Right To Rise from a new angle. Previously, Chad and Jason comprised the writing core, but they opened composition to the whole band, splitting sessions between the Motor City and Atlanta with producer and writer Johnny Andrews.  Armed with a battering ram of riffs and swaggering grooves, songs like the title track capture that spirit, while tapping into a distinctly “live” energy, offering a tribute to their home and rock music. Wilson is Chad Nicefield (vocals), Jason Spencer (guitar), Kyle Landry( guitar), James Lascu (bass), and Matt Puhy (drums).
