Big Wild

Big Wild is what happens when a classically trained multi-instrumentalist from Boston decides to make electronic music that actually makes you feel things beyond just the bass drop. Jackson Stell started dropping tracks on SoundCloud in 2014 and built Big Wild into something genuinely special and completely his own - music that's simultaneously chill and energetic, emotional and danceable, produced with the precision of a perfectionist who also happens to be a really warm, genuine person.

The live show is what sets Big Wild apart from the laptop-producer crowd in a major way. Stell plays drums, keyboards, guitar, and sings - all live, all in the same show, often switching instruments mid-song without missing a beat. It's one of those performances where you watch and think "wait, is he actually doing all of that right now?" and the answer is yes. Yes he absolutely is. Albums like "Superdream" and "Getting Away" translate beautifully to the stage because there are actual instruments and real performance happening, not just backing tracks and light shows.

The crowd at a Big Wild show is always this wonderful mix of EDM fans, indie kids, and people who just heard "Aftergold" or "City of Sound" on a playlist somewhere and decided to check out what this guy is all about. The energy is warm, welcoming, and genuinely happy - like everyone in the room is sharing a secret they just discovered together. The visuals are vibrant, the sound is pristine, and by the end of the night you're going to feel better about everything than you did when you walked in. His trajectory from SoundCloud producer to major festival performer is one of the best success stories in independent electronic music, built entirely on genuine talent and a connection with fans.
