Welcome to 2025. Chill with us and the crew with Oblong Squarerecords. Get your heart beating to the groove, and listen to the compilation Lo-Fi Chronicles, streaming all over the Internet.
Great music sets the mood. Let’s make 2025 a chill year full of love and peace.
I am happy to announce that Tonewulf is joining Oblong Square Records! This is a big step for us and will help us share Tonewulf with a broader audience. Read on to learn more about this exciting partnership between Tonewulf and Oblong Square Records.
Why a label?
The music industry has changed an incredible amount over the past decade. While there are lots of tools available to musicians, it can be difficult to do everything yourself. After all, most musicians want to make music, not just run a social media startup! Signing to a label helps us expand our reach and connect with new outlets, forms of distribution, and form partnerships with others on the Oblong Square Records label.
What are we looking for in a label?
We are looking for friends moving in the same direction. A crew with a shared interest. A team with a focused goal. Oblong Square Records is an independent record label that loves music and treats artists well. Here’s more from the Oblong Square website:
Oblong Square is an independent record label specializing in Lo-Fi, Downtempo, Trip-Hop, Chillwave, Ambient, Minimal Tech, Deep House and Avant-Garde music. Our ethos prioritizes the artist, ensuring they retain complete ownership of their music, masters, image, content, and personal branding.
As you can tell, this description fits Tonewulf well, which makes our partnership a perfect fit.
What does this mean for Tonewulf?
It means we get to focus more on making music and sharing it with you! We have at least one, possibly two, new releases coming to you in 2025. So this partnership means more Tonewulf music, visuals and live shows coming your way next year!

We love our new Tonewulf logo and it looks really good on garb. Some of our friends asked for T-shirts, hats, etc, so we have set up a Tonewulf store for those who would like to take Tonewulf wherever they go.
Also, if there are designs you would like to see, let us know. Email us or reach out via social media. We love to create beautiful things and share them with you!
Peace and love,
Tonewulf
The time has come! This is the first public reveal of our new Tonewulf logo! We are so excited to share this new wulf, and new phase of Tonewulf with you.
The old wulf served us well, but as with all things, there is a time to refresh and simplify. Our guitarist and friend Caleb Knight did a great job of retaining the spirit of the wulf and capturing it in a stronger image.
Can you imagine the new wulf in laser lights? Projected on the side of a building? Thumping on the front of a kick drum head? We can – and more!
Coming soon will be the new wulf image available on stickers, hats, shirts, etc. Wherever you go, you will be able to bring the spirit of the Tonewulf with you. Make friends, influence people, and dance with them. It’s the Tonewulf way.
Thank you for being on the Tonewulf journey with us. It means a lot and we love sharing with you.
Peace and Love,
Tonewulf

When we started Tonewulf we made it all up on the fly…and it worked! But now we are finding ourselves in need of a more professional update**. So, over the coming months we will be sharing our major rebrand with you *(hint: if you are part of the email list you will find out first!)
What does a major rebrand mean?
So, be on the lookout for a bunch of new stuff in the Tonewulf world, including brand new merch, as we share with you a whole new wulf!
*This featured image is an AI rendering of Tonewulf. It is not our new logo…but it is kind of fun!
**A big shout out to Caleb Knight Photography, who has helped us with our major rebrand of Tonewulf!
“Where would a wise man hide a leaf? In the forest. If there were no forest, he would make a forest.” ― G.K. Chesterton
The green of the trees begins to fade into gradients of earth and rust. The nights, once thick with air, have become crisp and exhilarating. Autumn wraps itself in a blanket of leaves, and embrace that will last for months.
Every season has cause for celebration; autumn is no different in the hills of North Carolina. And as the season changes around us, so the season changes within us well.
Tonewulf, up to this point, has been a collection of fragments. A collage. Words cut out of a newspaper and painted together in new sentences. Musings and melodies scribbled out and posted to the wall. A compulsive dalliance, perhaps, the impulse to nod in solidarity with an unknown passerby.
And just as we cannot always feel the season’s change approaching, there it is! A cool night signals that summer has put away her short sleeves and has wrapped a blanket around her shoulders.
And here we are now, Tonewulf, with our fur thick and ready for the crisp season we were made for. The sounds. The band. The music. The images. The process. A new fresh thing is emerging, the spirit of it has a hot breath and strong legs. This wulf is no longer a pup.
Attending to the quote at the beginning of this post – this is the forest we have made: Tonewulf is an American electronic band from North Carolina. We create and perform original music and curated visuals that tap into the deep reservoir of meaning buried in the psychedelic closet of the human mind.
What we offer you is a journey into the unfolding nature of existence. The forest is our field of consciousness… and beyond. And the hidden leaf is out there, somewhere on the forest floor, like a map of the forest, waiting to be found.
Join us.

August is fading and soon the cool nights will be upon us. When the lush greens begin to grow crisp, night draws close and dancing heats our bones. We are looking forward to projecting lights and constructing beats for you to dance to. First, we will be playing at the Burke Arts Council on October 3rd in Morganton, NC. The sky will be dark and we will cast colorful light on the white brick of the building en masse. You won’t want to miss it.
Second, we want to inspire you to move and groove, wherever you are. To do so we are creating recorded music that you will be able to download and stream from all of your favorite platforms. In fact, we have at least three albums worth of music in our golden vault, the first of which we will release this fall. Keep an eye on our Youtube channel for pre-releases and snippets of new stuff.
Third, if you haven’t yet…join our email list so you don’t miss any of the fun. You will get some behind the scenes and special stuff for joining, and it will only be a few emails per year. We promise.
We hope you are falling in love with life. We hope you are dancing with others. Pay attention – there is a lot of good around you.
