Vocalist Aaron Hailey says, “Everyone loves a bit of cliche nostalgia, which is why we wrote Circa ’99. But the funny part is most of the band was born in 97 so we were really only 3.”

Hailing from the Chicago suburbs, Wilmette combines pop-punk and hardcore with a fresh style that relies on pop hooks, honest lyrics, and strong musicianship. The band’s emphatic debut EP “Anxious Body” was released in 2019 to much acclaim.
