Lachlan Bryan and the Wildes Release Powerful New Single, “I Hope That I’m Wrong”

If anything good can come from all of the social and political turmoil in the world, it’s great music. Lachlan Bryan and the Wildes lend their voice to the commentary with their latest single “I Hope That I’m Wrong.”

“I’m saddened by the timeliness of this release,” Lachlan said. “But in truth, the awful things we’ve seen in the news right now are not new. This song meant just as much to me when I wrote it a year or so ago, and when we made the video last month. I continue to hope that I’m wrong, but I fear that I am right.”

Make sure you tune in to the lyrics when you’re listening to this one. You’re not likely to hear better.

“I Hope That I’m Wrong” comes from Lachlan Bryan and the Wildes’ new album Some Girls (Quite) Like Country Music. Fresh from shows across the United Kingdom and Europe, Lachlan Bryan and the Wildes will appear at the Gympie Muster on August 23 and 24.

Lachlan Bryan and the Wildes Join Shanley Del For Beautiful New Single

I don’t always warm to country music, especially the kind of country that sticks to the genre’s roots. Yet in spite of that, “The Basics of Love,” a new collaboration from Lachlan Bryan and the Wildes and ARIA award winner Shanley Del has won me over.

It’s the strength of the songwriting that does it for me I think. It’s so true and vivid, creating the story of these two people making their way through the world and their emotions. Lachlan cowrote the track with his Wildes bandmate Damian Cafarella and Melbourne songwriter Nia Robertson.

“Nia had the original idea for the song and I loved it immediately,” Lachlan said in a press release. “It’s kind of like a scene from an old film – just a moment in time where a couple of characters are replaying all their mistakes in their heads. They’re at the bar together, but they’re very much alone – for now.”

Lachlan Bryan and the Wildes will capitalise on the release of “The Basics of Love” with a run of shows next year, including appearances at the Tamworth Country Music Festival.
