L.A.-based alt-rock quintet Wildling have released another new track, "Leavin'," an upbeat foot-stomper with its big drum beat, acoustic guitars, and howling chant, produced by Alex Salibian [Harry Styles, Elle King]. The Eric Ogden-directed video serves as a prequel to the recently-released "Lilywhite" and also stars Meredith Adelaide, alongside pro skater Savannah Headden with Stefanos Miltsakakis and Igor Petrovik. Buzzbands LA premiered the video today, urging listeners to, "Ready the handclaps and save your voices" for the song's "outsized rhythms and shout-along chorus." The band regards "Leavin'" as their "drinking song," with vocalist Ryan Levine saying, "For me, it speaks to the feeling of being misunderstood and not being afraid to walk away from people or situations that don't feel authentic anymore. It's a barn burner." Check it out below!

Wildling - composed of brothers Ryan Levine [vocals, guitar] and Justin Levine [bass], with Andrew Ampaya [keyboard], Erik Janson [guitar] and Casey Wojtalewicz [drums] - have deep musical roots in L.A., each respectively having devoted a lifetime thus far to music in their various former bands and iterations. But it was when they officially became Wildling that they started making the "big room indie rock" they've become known for, and after their debut performance at The Satellite, the band landed a coveted one-month residency with the venue and earned themselves a rabid local following. Within a year, Wildling secured several high-profile syncs with Donna Karan, EA Sports, and ABC's Nashville and accompanied Young the Giant on their North American run, before inking with Warner Bros. Records earlier this year.
