Our Good Wolf was formed in 2012 and grew from the wish to write and create original music that reflected their eclectic interests.
The 5 piece indie-alternative band draw inspiration from all over the place, from modern alternative rock, to classic folk and country, to their favourite funk and jazz records, to Romantic poetry. A constant theme in the band has been collective thought, and it is incorporation of many themes that has often pushed them into new and exciting terrain.

We are the Betty Alice Effect.
Gold and Silver. Black and White.
In our darkest places, we find our light.
The great and the terrible truth we write.
Sometimes crazy, sometimes sad.
Sometimes happy and a little bit mad.
All our desire, all our wants..
reflected back to you
in the mirror. In the song.
