Published: Sept. 2, 2020, 10:30 a.m.

You know how when you listen to certain songs, you feel you feel like you\u2019re being transported to a totally different place? Most of the time, this is exactly what the musician was trying to do\u2014especially if the musician is Jackson Stell, who creates music under the name Big Wild. Stell is a rapidly rising artist in the electronic and dance scene, though his songs don\u2019t fit neatly in that genre. As a producer, musician, songwriter, and vocalist, he\u2019s crafting works that are inspired by remarkable outdoor landscapes and capture the ecstatic feelings we have when we venture into the natural world. The result is songs that make us feel like we\u2019re on an adventure\u2014and having a fantastic time. In this episode, we take a journey through Big Wild\u2019s catalogue and talk to Stell about how his personal journey led him to seek out a new kind of sound experience.\n\n\nThis episode of the Outside Podcast is brought to you by Bank of the West, and their new 1% for the Planet checking account, the first bank account designed for climate action.
