Wiretree
Sun-drenched melodies and gentle jangle that feel like a Polaroid of a perfect afternoon. Intimate, melodic indie pop for quiet commutes and slow Sundays.

Wiretree is the primary creative vehicle for Austin-based songwriter Kevin Peroni, emerging in the mid-2000s as a solo project before evolving into a full band. The project's sound identity is rooted in the intersection of 60s British Invasion melodies, 80s indie-pop jangle, and the DIY ethos of 2000s American indie rock.
Peroni's work is characterized by a high degree of melodic craftsmanship, often employing sophisticated chord progressions and vocal harmonies that elevate the music above standard garage-rock tropes. Critically, the band is often cited as a hidden gem of the Austin scene, praised for maintaining a consistent aesthetic of 'warmth' and 'intimacy' across nearly two decades. Their career arc shows a steady refinement of production values, moving from the bedroom-folk leanings of 'Bouldin' to the more polished, expansive indie-pop of 'Get Up' and 'Towards the Sky'. They occupy a cultural space similar to artists like The Shins or Elliott Smith, where the focus remains on the emotional resonance of the song rather than stylistic experimentation.
