Info for WILDWOOD

WILDWOOD is Anne Buckle’s debut album featuring two musically contrasting sides. Actual blood, sweat, and tears were shed during the 4-year making of this record, but we are finally DONE.

The title is an ode to Anne’s roots as a descendant of The Carter Family, referencing their 1927 song “The Wildwood Flower.” Even more, it references the windy gravel road of the same name in Poor Valley, VA, from where her grandmother and a dozen other beloved family members hailed - a road that led to her late uncle’s cabin, where she spent a month recording the songs for this record, channeling the spirits of all the music-makers from that area who came before her and made her the musician and dreamer she is.

Anne Buckle is a native of Peachtree City, GA, Anne Buckle is a singer, songwriter, and strings player in Nashville, TN. A descendent of A.P. Carter and cousin of June Carter Cash, she chose to go by the stage name WILDWOOD as a nod to The Carter Family’s “The Wildwood Flower”. As WILDWOOD, her original songs have amassed millions of streams, and she has shared the stage with the late Charlie Daniels, toured with Augustana, opened for The Chicks on their 2016 World Tour, performed on the stage of the Grand Ole Opry, and has become a regular at the Bluebird Cafe. As a songwriter, Anne’s songs have been recorded by artists including David Archuleta, Marisa McKaye, and Jacob Westfall, to name a few.

Anne Buckle
When the Carter Family sang about a melancholy flower in the wildwood nearly one hundred years ago, little did they know that three generations later, another Carter songstress would personify its story. Anne Buckle is a singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist based in Nashville, TN. Her lyrical story-telling and haunting melodies channel her Appalachian roots, creating a uniquely original dark indie-Americana sound. She’s been called “a refreshing take on a legendary family" by the Nashville Music Guide and can be found in Music City’s singer-songwriter circuit.

But who is she?

A Harvard graduate; former diplomat at the US Embassy in Paris; classically trained violinist with a master’s degree in arts education; self-taught on nearly a dozen other musical instruments; a Georgia native who now calls Music City home, who spent three years creating the Tennessee Promise program with Governor Haslam. But, this daughter of two school teachers left that life of stability behind, instead choosing to chase her dreams down an uncertain path - one full of doubt and heartbreak, freedom and possibility.

Her original songs have amassed over 4 million streams across platforms, and she has co-written songs recorded by other artists including American Idol’s David Archuleta and Lindy Boone, daughter of legendary crooner Pat Boone. As a fiddle player and vocalist, she has shared the stage with the late Charlie Daniels, toured with Augustana opening for The Chicks on their 2016 World Tour, and performed on the stage of the Grand Ole Opry. As a teaching artist, Anne works with hundreds of individuals and organizations annually to help them unleash their creativity through music.

July 2024 will see new album WILDWOOD out on vinyl alongside her debut children’s book, Firefly, inspired by the eponymous song.

This album contains no booklet.
