Members Mat Devine

Wrongchilde is the solo project of Mat Devine, lead singer of Kill Hannah. The project was started in 2013 and they released their first album Gold Blooded on August 19, 2014. The album is being self-released through PledgeMusic.[1]

History

Wrongchilde started when Mat Devine moved to Los Angeles to work on the project and begin his first solo album Gold Blooded.[2] The name came to him in a dream while he was in high school, and he began scratching it on books and things, not knowing why.[3]

Gold Blooded

Gold Blooded is Wrongchilde's first album, and is set for release on August 19, 2014. The album features duets with Gerard Way of My Chemical Romance, Morgan Kibby of White Sea and M83, and Sierra Kusterbeck of VersaEmerge.

The project is completely self-financed through PledgeMusic. Fans are able to pre-order the album and receive items exclusive to the campaign, including the "Burn Notice Package" (the buyer will assume Mat's identity, and Mat will disappear forever) and the "Procreation Package" (the buyer will have Mat's first child and receive all rights to the Devine family name). Gold Blooded Necklaces are also available, and after each 10 are sold, Mat will record himself donating blood to the American Red Cross, despite his phobia of both blood and needles.[4]

Wrongchilde's first single "Falling In Love Will Kill You" featuring Gerard Way received over 85k streams on Soundcloud in the first few weeks.[5] The single is being released on an exclusive limited edition heart-shaped vinyl, and when you preorder the album through PledgeMusic, you'll also get an instant MP3 download of the track.[6]
