On her second album, ‘Technicolour’, Australian indie-pop artist Holly Wild leans into the messiness of love, jealousy, insecurity and self-worth across 13 emotionally direct tracks.
Following 2024 debut ‘Fire’, Wild sounds more confident in her identity. Working with producers including Grammy-winning Brian Forbes, she blends dreamy pop, acoustic moments and sharper rock influences into a record that feels varied without losing focus.
Much of ‘Technicolour’ is built around contradiction. Love can be exciting and exhausting. Confidence can sit beside self-doubt. Jealousy can feel petty, funny and painful at the same time. Wild lets those emotions sit alongside each other rather than forcing them into neat conclusions.
The production follows that same idea, moving between bright choruses, stripped-back sections and heavier guitar-driven moments. Wild’s vocals remain the centre of the record, shifting from soft and intimate to bigger, more forceful performances.
At its best, ‘Technicolour’ feels like a fuller picture of Holly Wild rather than a reinvention. The album makes space for vulnerability, confidence, frustration and joy, all at once.
‘Technicolour’ is out now.
