wildwildsky
FOUNDER, SONGWRITER, PRODUCER
wildwildsky is the creative project of UK songwriter-producer Nick Donovan, who returned to acoustic-based songwriting after nearly a decade immersed in Berlin’s electronica scene. Inspired by the surrounding wilderness of his UK home, wildwildsky’s music blends alternative/indie-folk, atmospheric textures, and heartfelt storytelling.
His debut single “Sylvie Fern”—written the morning after his niece’s birth—marked a transformative shift into emotive, alternative folk, drawing praise for its vivid lyrical imagery and nostalgic sound.
wildwildsky’s evocative indie folk sound has earned him comparisons to Bon Iver, Paul Simon, and Fleet Foxes for his moving atmospheres and melodic subtlety.
Nick’s idea to release his, and other’s, music into the wild and share it with as many people as possible gave birth to the wildwildsky app: an exploration in technology and mission to explore a unique way to release and experience music.

Anna B Savage
Anna B Savage is a London singer-songwriter and musician. Her songs are stark, skeletal paintings of moods and reflection, using a palette of mainly voice and guitar. Most prominent is her voice – strong and sonorous, yet with a vulnerability that feels as if she’s in the same room as you.
A sense of rootedness is at the heart of Anna B Savage’s third record You and i are Earth (City Slang records), a record that is as much about healing as it is an unbowed sense of curiosity, and, more simply, “a love letter to a man and to Ireland.” Since 2020 Anna has spent much of her time on the west coast of Ireland, dipping back to her home in County Donegal between bouts of touring - this year supporting The Staves and St Vincent.
