In summer 2011 Klein gathered together friends and musical associates to found his first set touring band, The Wild Fires. Klein had already released three well-received albums featuring assorted all-star line-ups from the talented Athens scene, including Randall Bramblett, John Neff (Drive-By Truckers), David Blackmon, multi-instrumentalist AJ Adams, Lera Lynn, and more, but the formation of The Wild Fires seemed to mark a turning point. Alongside bandmates Steve Abercrombie (bass) and Crash Cason (electric guitar), multi-instrumentalist and drummer Bronson Tew joined the fold and the project was propelled forward. Adam Klein & The Wild Fires toured throughout the southeast and gained steam.

Over a matter of months, between playing shows and Klein's travels to West Africa, the band built the songs of Sky Blue DeVille. Recorded by accomplished engineer Tew of the Fat Possum label's Dial Back Sound (Dexateens, Water Liars), the collection steers away from the country and roots-heavy stylings and instrumentation of Klein's previous releases in favor of a more Americana rock approach centered on Cason and Tew's thick electric guitars and special guest Randall Bramblett's dense Wurlitzer, Rhodes, and piano. Legendary Hammond B3 maestro Ike Stubblefield also contributes his grand sound to closing track "Highway of Your Love", and David Blackmon sat in for touches of fiddle.
