Based in Los Angeles,
Remi Wolf is a singer/songwriter who traffics in a colorful brand of pop that incorporates funk, disco, left-field, and lo-fi bedroom pop. She began releasing singles in 2019, earning praise for songs like "Guy" from her colorful debut EP,
You're a Dog. After signing with Island Records,
Wolf issued two more EPs in quick succession ahead of her 2021 full-length debut,
Juno.
A California native,
Wolf's musical passions began at a young age, though her unusual story arc also includes ten years of downhill ski competition and Olympic training as well as a 2014 run as an American Idol contestant. Although she could have adapted her powerful, soulful voice to the masses,
Wolf's vibe was a bit too quirky for the mainstream and she eschewed the typical post-Idol path and spent several years crafting a unique D.I.Y. sound. She finally made her solo debut with 2019's "Guy," a winsome slice of tropical funk-pop that lit up blogs and playlists. She later folded it into her debut EP,
You're a Dog, which further showed off her range. A 2020 feature on
Cautious Clay's sunny track "Cheesin'" brought her further attention ahead of her second EP,
I'm Allergic to Dogs!, her major-label debut for Island. A 2021 remix EP,
We Love Dogs!, featured contributions from numerous high profile producers and artist including
Beck,
Sylvan Esso, and
Polo & Pan. Led by the streaming his "Sexy Villain,"
Wolf finally made her full-length debut in October of that year with
Juno. ~ Timothy Monger
