MisterWives are an American indie pop band based in New York City, consisting of lead singer Mandy Lee (Amanda Lee Duffy), drummer and percussionist Etienne Bowler, bass guitarist William Hehir, guitarist Marc Campbell, and keyboardist and saxophonist Mike Murphy.

MisterWives was formed in late 2012 when lead singer Mandy Lee wanted an '80s cover band for her birthday party.

[7] Eventually the band would expand to its current set-up of five members by bringing Bowler's friends Blum and Campbell (not including the band's saxophonist Mike Murphy), and play its first show as 'MisterWives' (a gender-flipped play on the term, sister wives,[8] suggesting polyandry as opposed to polygyny) on February 1, 2013 at the Canal Room in New York City.

The group began touring with Half Moon Run in October 2013 that ended with a performance at the CMJ Music Marathon.

Alter the Press' Victoria Mier gave the album a 5/5 saying "Simply put, MisterWives is quite incredible and certainly has both the capacity and the talent to take over the indie-pop world.

"[11] Nick Krenn of EarBuddy.net wrote "All listeners hunting for more depth from current pop music will want to hear Reflections".

[12] The music blog Pigeons and Planes said about one of the tracks from the EP: "MisterWives has only been in existence since 2012, but you would never know that by listening to the expertly written and masterfully produced "Coffins".

On December 17, 2016, the band posted on its official Facebook page to announce: "our second record is finally complete".

They also released two singles: "Oh Love" on March 30, 2017 and "Drummer Boy" on April 20, 2017, via their YouTube channel in accordance with Vevo.

[25] The band played festivals throughout the rest of the year, where Lee and Bowler were wedded in August, and began work on their third studio album in early 2019.

[5] On March 30, 2023, MisterWives released the single "Out of Your Mind", a notable departure in sound for the band due to being more punk-influenced than their previous work.

[34] On the Mediabase Alternative charts, the following additional peaks were reached: Machine 38, Coloring Outside The Lines 47, 3 Small Words 57, Nosebleeds 26.
