Baltimore indie folk rock duo, Wye Oak, takes their name from the honorary state tree of Maryland. Originally formed as "Monarch" in mid-2006, the band consists of Andy Stack on drums, keyboards, and backup vocals, and Jenn Wasner on vocals and guitars.
With their unique blend of indie folk and rock influences, Wye Oak has captivated audiences with their heartfelt lyrics and mesmerizing melodies. Their music resonates with listeners on a deep level, evoking emotions that are both introspective and relatable.
Known for their dynamic live performances and powerful stage presence, Wye Oak has gained a loyal following over the years. Their discography boasts critically acclaimed albums that showcase their growth as artists while staying true to their signature sound.

Jenn Wasner and Andy Stack return with their third album, "Civilian." "Civilian" is a kind of 21st-century folk music, imbued with dense shoegaze guitars, nearly melodic rhythms, and impeccable splashes of electronic color. Without leaning on conventional structure, the songs beguile with fascinating chords and melodies, Jenn's voice and riveting lyrics, mesmerizing rhythms, and an intoxicating aural landscape. Jenn sums up the meaning of the album saying, "this collection of songs is called 'Civilian' because I believe everyone wants to be normal, but no one truly is."
