British singer/songwriter Ollie Wride announces his US solo debut at West Hollywood’s legendary Troubadour, having last sold out the venue as frontman with FM-84. He has penned some of synthwave’s most popular tracks including “Running in The Night”, “Never Stop” and “Stranger Love”, while his live performances are known to be both exhilarating and captivating.
Following the success of these collaborations, it provided Wride the opportunity to further explore his melodic sensibilities, fusing elements of alternative rock with the nostalgic hallmarks of synth pop, culminating in the release of his debut solo album “Thanks In Advance”. The debut released on NewRetroWave Records is widely praised and charted on Billboard’s Top 10 Electronic charts as well as No.1 on iTunes’ Electronic chart.
