At age 23, Wilde entered a recovery program for alcohol and drug abuse where he would write the 13 songs that became Unforgivable Things (2010), his first effort as a solo artist. The self-released demo would go out of print and disappear, but Wilde had already gone on to form the band Quiet Hollers as an outlet for his songwriting. They have released four LPs, toured Europe several times and criss-crossed North America ad nauseam.
In January 2020, Wilde released the single Rain, and continued to release singles every now and then, until the long overdue of his début album proper, Forever Home, in September 2023.
