Wild Like Children (CD)
Tilly and the Wall sprang out of Nowheresville, USA -- a Midwestern band of like-minded friends with pockets full of melodies...and a lot of pockets. The serendipitous result of five Omaha residents with a penchant for the same classic '60s pop, boy/girl harmonies and Americana folk records, Tilly and the Wall celebrates the petulant, determined, feisty nature of youth. They rejoice in tales of dreams followed, mistakes made, and hearts broken. Their debut album, "Wild Like Children" consists of 11 perfectly formed songs bursting with enthusiastic hyperactivity, while emanating a bitter sweet melancholy of long lost summers and misguided first loves. Tilly and the Wall sing songs about loving & kissing, dancing & drinking, staying & leaving, driving & talking, sleeping & dreaming...and they're probably the only band to write a hauntingly wearied love song built around Madonna's "Into The Groove." If Phil Spector had ever decided to make a record with '60s folk heroes Mimi and Richard Farina, it might've sounded a little bit like Tilly and the Wall.
