London and Yorkshire based Wanderland began life as the songwriting project of duo Matt Robinson (Snowpoet) and Natalie Wildgoose. After setting up in a remote old mill next to a waterfall in the north of the Yorkshire Dales, the duo wrote and recorded their debut EP ‘Songs, I’ over six months. The introspective and isolated setting became an incredibly generative time. They dubbed the project Wanderland intentionally as it was born out of the exploration of the wilderness.

The two records ‘Songs,I’ and ‘Songs,II’ were both written and recorded in North Yorkshire. Some songs were written only hours before recording, capturing something deep and open-hearted, you can hear the rainy days and the star speckled nights. Collaborators and friends also show up across the EP including guitarist Tara Cunningham (Tenderhost), drummer Dave Hamblett (The Magic Lantern) and bassist's Max Luthert (Zara McFarlane and Moses Boyd) and Tom Mccredie (Seafarers).

Several Wanderland songs have been played on BBC Radio 1 The Chillest Show and Annie Mac's Power Down playlist as well as BBC Introducing, BBC 6 and a live session for BBC York, who nominated their release as Record of the Week.
