Inland Isle’s members were bound to find each other in the small – but surprisingly deep – music scene in Jackson, Wyoming. Drawing from indie rock, Americana and chamber pop influences, the band’s songs are anchored by the sometimes introspective, other times incisive lyrics sung by songwriter-guitarist Patrick Chadwick atop lush vocal harmonies.

Released in 2021, Inland Isle’s eight-song debut album, Time Has Changed Us, reckons with the aftermath of upheaval in America and its effects on relationships, community and livelihoods. It was lauded by Glide magazine as a “big Laurel Canyon sound,” and by Under the Radar as “rich heartland rock, folk harmonies, and anthemic vocal hooks.” The band has been releasing new singles from its follow-up album, In Denial, due out in the first half of 2025.

Often confused as brothers at shows, Chadwick and lead guitarist Dusty Nichols each grew up in Massachusetts – and even lived in the same Boston-area neighborhood – but the pair of songwriters didn’t meet until moving cross-country. Inland Isle is rounded out by prolific musicians Leif Routman on bass and Liam O’Neill on drums.
