"Desperate Electric is a band that is constantly evolving. They’re not content to rest on their laurels. They’re always pushing themselves to explore new sounds and new ideas.
And that’s what makes them so exciting. They’re a band that’s not afraid to take risks. And with “Wildfire,” they’ve taken their biggest risk yet. And it’s paid off. This is a band that is on the verge of something big. And I, for one, can’t wait to see what they do next." --MrrrDaisy, Music Arena
"Desperate Electric aren't just a band. They’re a vibe. When band members Kayti Korte and Ben Morris get on stage, something comes over them. Pretty soon, it’s infecting the audience as well." --Jake Iverson, Billings Gazette
Hailing from the mountains of Montana, Desperate Electric is a blissful matrimony of futuristic R&B and retro dance grooves. Their idiosyncratic approach to songwriting and production has garnered them national acclaim in the span of a few short years. The duo’s live shows are typified by effortless vocal harmonies, uninhibited showmanship, and lethal musical prowess.
‘Fusing elements of funk, rock, soul, pop, and R&B, with cosmo-tronic production, they create a musical experience that’s both futuristic and nostalgic. Moving the listener to dance, think, and reflect, they peer into their mirrors’ darkest corners, openly exploring who they are, what they’ve done, who they want to be, and how they need to change, grow, or evolve to get there.’ -Matt Asaro, Blue World Blog
Desperate Electric's discography is a testament to their versatility. Their soulful pop sound is infused with elements of funk, R&B, and disco, resulting in a fusion of timeless melodies and modern production. With catchy hooks, thought-provoking lyrics, and irresistible beats, their music is both uplifting and deeply resonant, serving as a soulful soundtrack for life's triumphs and tribulations.
“Wildfire” brings their usual mix of retro grooves and modern soul-pop, but it’s dialed in tighter than ever. The vocals come across honest and raw, especially against the slick synth work and dance-ready rhythm underneath, and Kayti’s harmonies add that extra layer of shine that makes the track pop without trying too hard. It starts off easy to sink into, and before you know it, you’re fully locked in." --Ellie Malkin, Beach House Blog
