About

On Public Records Performance, Wilkes debuts a dynamic set of new originals and arrangements, presenting a window into his syncretic approach to an ever-expanding contemporary songbook. The LP showcases Wilkes’ writing and bass playing, both as a soloist and as a member of a dominant rhythm section. The tight and communicative unit of multi-instrumentalists comprising his band features Wilkes on Fender Bass, Graefe on acoustic and electric guitar, Aidan Lombard on keyboards and guitar, Craig Weinrib on drums and guitar, and Shahzad Ismaily sitting in on Moog Rogue on the album's final track. Captured on August 6th, 2022, immediately after recording both his duo album The Doober with Sam Gendel and basses on Nothing with Louis Cole, this LP is a concise but expansive document of a musician at the height of a prolific streak. — (via Label)
