Richie W**d & Ben Nightingale + Mudslide Al

Richie W**d has never been content to stand still. While best known as the voice of
Tumbleweed, recent years have found him forging a distinctly personal creative path,
exploring new musical territory through songwriting, collaboration and a series of
adventurous projects that continue to redefine his work.
His acclaimed 2024 solo album Strays revealed a songwriter trading volume for
nuance, weaving richly textured, deeply personal songs that draw as much from folk,
country and psychedelia as they do from the alternative rock spirit that first made his
name.
That restless creative instinct continues to shape a diverse run of projects. W**d
tours nationally with his Band of Strays and the acoustic pairing W**d & Nightingale
with acclaimed guitarist Ben Nightingale (Clouds, Sleepy Jackson).
He has recently celebrated the music of Tom Waits alongside Dave Graney, Hugo
Race and Peter Fenton, and has completed recording as the voice of Arktik Lake, an
international collaboration featuring Zia McCabe (The Dandy Warhols) and Ricky
Maymi (The Brian Jonestown Massacre).
It's a body of work that speaks less of reinvention than restless creativity—an artist
continuing to explore, collaborate and surprise.
