Sir Woman

The name of Wilson’s rollicking solo project fittingly came to her just as Wild Child was playing the last festival before their hiatus. While roaming the festival grounds, a security guard yelled at her, calling her "sir" and "woman." Something clicked: it was the song she had been singing in a dream the night before, the character she longed to create. "It felt so appropriate and reminded me of Motown, just classic but powerful. It was everything that I didn't really get to express in Wild Child."

As Sir Woman, Wilson took the Austin music scene by storm in 2022 with the release of her full-length self-titled debut. It led to performances at renowned clubs, earning Artist of the Year at the 2023 Austin Music Awards, and features in Rolling Stone, Spin.com, Variety, the cover of the Austin Chronicle, and many other publications. The buzz around Sir Woman helped earn her upwards of 30 million streams on Spotify.

Wilson is now channeling her long passion for soul, funk, and R&B into a double album — If It All Works Out and If It Doesn't. Making one — let alone two — albums wasn't something she ever intended to do. Throughout the making of both records, Wilson experienced significant loss: while recording If It All Works Out, her sister died, and between the debut and the second LP, her father passed away. They were both chapters in her life that needed to be shared separately.

"It basically came out to be an album for a good day and an album for a bad one, because you need music for both experiences."
