Wolfe first made his mark as a musician as co-founder of the New York
indie pop band Bravo Silva. Bravo Silva released an EP entitled 'July' in 2004 and an eponymous full-length album in 2005. Following Bravo Silva's dissolution, Wolfe moved to Los Angeles and began to perform as a solo act under his current moniker. In 2009, Wolfe released two EPs:
The Blue House, composed of original material, and
Wolfe Sings Field, made up of songs penned by Portland-based writer Peter Field. Wolfe's full-length debut, entitled 'Linda Vista' was released in 2011 on Wolfe's own Undermountain Music label. Produced by Aaron Older and Nico Aglietti of
Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes and featuring members of
Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes,
Dawes and
Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti, Linda Vista was received positively by music critics such as
Rolling Stone Magazine and led to Wolfe being named as an "artist to watch" by the
Los Angeles Times. On March 2, 2011, Wolfe made his network television debut as a musical guest on
Jimmy Kimmel Live!, performing "Someone Else" and "Stop the Train" from his
Linda Vista album. He also gave an in-studio performance for
WNYC Soundcheck with John Schaefer in May 2011. Wolfe's songs have been licensed in major motion pictures with "Someone Else" being featured in the film
