“You Are My Kind of Crazy” is the foundation upon which The Band Wanted was built—and their first award-winning song, earning recognition at the World Songwriting Awards in 2020. Formed in Colorado in 2016 as a three-piece band, Joshua and Candy Carpenter are the driving force behind the group, delivering high-energy performances centered on country favorites inspired by artists like Little Big Town and Ashley McBryde. Known for leaving audiences feeling both energized and truly “Wanted,” their sound blends influences ranging from Alison Krauss and Patsy Cline to Willie Nelson, The Dead South, CCR, and Journey, creating a dynamic and versatile musical experience. As their vision has grown alongside a loyal fanbase known as the Outlaws, the band has achieved continued success, including multiple honors from the International Singer Songwriters Association—Vocal Duo of the Year (2023) and Video of the Year (2024 and 2025) for “Tombstone”—as well as recognition from Who’s Hoo Country Music. With additional accolades for songs like “8 Seconds” and “Still Alive,” Joshua and Candy are celebrated for their seamless harmonies and authentic storytelling, captivating audiences one song at a time.
