Mighty Oaks featured in a Tidal magazine article titled 'The Mighty Oaks: We Are Living Our Dream,' discussing their sophomore album, 'Dreamers,' which featured 'big love songs, bonfire romantic, road trip fantasies and space to dream big in times of doubt.' This indicates media coverage and promotional partnership.
Mighty Oaks formed in early 2010 in Berlin, Germany, by Ian Hooper (United States), Claudio Donzelli (Italy), and Craig Saunders (United Kingdom). Ian Hooper had previously moved to Hamburg, befriending bassist Saunders while they both worked on solo material. They later met Donzelli at an acoustic festival. The trio developed a sound influenced by indie rock and folk rock, focusing on guitar, mandolin, and ukulele. Their collective approach to songwriting and instrumentation became a defining characteristic of their music. They self-released an EP, ‘Driftwood Seat,’ on March 21, 2011, which gained significant online traction despite not being officially released through a label.
The group committed fully to their music in mid-2012, releasing their first studio EP, ‘Just One Day,’ through Rough Trade Records. This release led to touring opportunities with artists like Shout Out Louds in Europe and opening for Kings of Leon at the Waldbühne in Berlin. They also participated in the ‘Introducing!’ tour in Germany alongside Chvrches. Their debut full-length album, ‘Howl,’ was released in early 2014 via Universal Records in Europe. It achieved commercial success, peaking at No. 10 on the Official German charts and reaching the top 10 in Switzerland, with several singles also charting.
Following the success of ‘Howl,’ Mighty Oaks continued to tour extensively, including major festival performances across Europe such as Melt! Festival, Dockville, Montreux Jazz Festival, Latitude Festival, and Exit Festival in 2014. Their album was released in the United States in spring 2015, supported by performances at SXSW and a tour with Milky Chance. After a period of intensive touring, the band took a break in 2016, with members briefly returning to their home countries. They reunited in Washington State to record their second album, ‘Dreamers,’ released on March 24, 2017, through Universal Music. This was followed by sold-out European and North American tours and the self-released EP ‘Storm’ in late 2017. Their career progression included further European festival appearances in 2018 and the release of their third album, ‘All Things Go,’ in February 2020 via BMG, and their fourth album, ‘Mexico,’ in May 2021 via Sony Music.
