Hey everyone it’s Rashad and this is Wear Many Hats presented by Dahsar where we talk about your main gig then we talk about your side hustle.

Max Rainer is in the band Wilderado.

I discovered Wilderado through playlists of playlists of playlists that got me to them.

I’m not sure why I have this thing for indie bands that are from Tulsa but I’ve never been.

No silverado please welcome Max Rainer of Wilderado.

Congrats on the new self titled album. Why do people do self titled albums? Is it because they don’t know what to call it or it’s a debut album.

I saw the video of you guys at the bar finding that your album was out. Were you all drinking Budweiser's?

What do you guys like to drink? What bar was that?

You guys met in 2015, that was a different time. How did you guys meet?

Do you guys live in Highland Park? I feel like all the bands live out there.

Did you always want to be a musician? What else could you be?

Music

You guys often sound like Kings of Leon, The Black Keys, The War on Drugs, I’m on this Americana tip what else do you guys get?

“Mr. Major” one of my favorite singles. Do you guys get that a lot. The melody and the chorus is obviously that hook that will bring people in.

When you say Tied Up you got that southern twang ad it’s so good.

“The Worst of It” You just put out a music video for it.

Another favorite single of mine is “Surefire” favorite line is “I’m a sucker for some harmony” The music video was hilarious when one of your bandmates poured so much Chalula hot sauce on his eggs.

The acoustic version of “Head Right” is so good.

Touring

Whats the press cycle going on right now? Besides us your new favorite podcast.

Ending

If you were to get a chest tattoo quote in olde english what would it be?

Plug your socials where can people find you?

Till next time this is Wear Many Hats presented by Dahsar and I’m Rashad Peace!
