Local band grows fan base since release

Jan 5, 2015 | 4:04 PM

After only a few weeks since their original single-song release, The Wolfe has already received lots of positive feedback from their listeners.

The Wolfe is an all-female alternative-rock band based in Prince Albert. This group of four was established in 2012 under their original name of Forgive and Forget.

The band members attended the Rivier Academy together, which is where The Wolfe band really came to fruition.

“I was with the beginning of the band,” said Wolfe vocalist and bass player Siobhan Bayda. “It was originally just the four of us and we decided that one day we wanted to make a band.” 

Bayda said they play a mixture of alternative and indie music but they mostly enjoy playing alternative-rock.

 “We wrote The Sea and Me and it just kind of clicked,” she said.

Gabrielle Giroux plays guitar and does back-up vocals for the band. She said her passion for music is why she joined the group. 

“I’d always really loved music and it was always something I knew I wanted to be part of but I never really knew how, “said Giroux. 

Being their first time releasing a single Giroux said it was a real learning experience.

“We didn’t really know what we were doing, so we kind of just put it together,” she said. “If were doing it right something will come out of it I guess.”

Along with their originals The Wolfe plays songs from The Black Keys, Panic! At The Disco and Imagine Dragons.

Bayda was excited to say the band won’t stop with the release of their single, they want to continue to share their music with the public.

“We have a couple songs on the go right now that were hoping to get out soon,” she said.

Other band members include Tesa Thompson on the drums and Andy Neufeld on the keyboard.
