MisterWives is an American indie pop band based in New York City, consisting of Mandy Lee, Etienne Bowler, William Hehir, Marc Campbell, and Jesse Blum. They have opened for acts such as Twenty-One Pilots, Half Moon Run, as well as American Authors and are currently signed to Photo Finish Records, a subsidiary of Island Def Jam. The band's debut EP Reflections, was released in January 2014.
The band was formed in late 2012, when lead singer Mandy Lee wanted an 80s cover band for her birthday party, she partnered with fellow musicians Etienne Bowler and William Hehir. Lee met Hehir through a mutual friend, and was introduced to Bowler a short time later. At the time, the two had been working at restaurants just a block apart in Manhattan. Eventually the band would expand to its current set-up of five members by brining Bowler's friends Blum and Campbell, and play its first show as MisterWives (A gender-flipped play on the term for the Mormon practice of polygamy, Sister Wives) on February 1, 2013 at the Canal Room in New York City.
The day after playing the Canal Room, the band was signed to Island Def Jam subsidiary, Photo Finish Records. The band would spend the better part of that year touring and working on their first EP. The group began touring with Half Moon Run in October 2013 that ended with a performance at the 2013 CMJ Music Marathon. This would be shortly followed by a six week tour with American Authors and The Royal Concept. All the while, the group had been preparing songs for Reflections.
