Biography

Wolf Rd (pronounced “wolf road”) is a high intensity band that shatters the boundaries between alternative, metal, and emo music - rearranging pieces of each soundscape to build a mosaic that breathes new sonic life. With roots planted deep in Chicago's vibrant and legendary pop-punk scene, Wolf Rd push beyond the genre and embrace a darker tone than their predecessors. Melancholic themes, ghostly production, and guitar-based ferocity are featured throughout the group's unique brand of hard rock. At the same time - Wolf Rd's music expands upon the soaring melodies, striking hooks, and bouncy energy that launched their hometown heroes Fall Out Boy and Rise Against to stardom. Formed by brothers Chris Hoffmann (vocals) and Nick Hoffmann (drums) with Geoffrey Duckmann (guitar) and Devin Stone (bass), the quartet are named after a road running through the childhood neighborhood where the Hoffmanns and Duckmann grew up. The group have constantly raised and exceeded expectations from the very beginning, selling-out their debut concert in support of the band's EP "Nowhere Around You." A second sold-out release show accompanied the band's acoustic and re-imagined record "Counterpoint." Word of Wolf Rd's dynamic live performances and engaging onstage antics began to spread like wildfire, spawning opportunities to tour across America and support internationally acclaimed artists including Meet Me @ The Altar, Tiny Moving Parts, and Action/Adventure.
