His song, "Cover Your Tracks," was recently included in the film and soundtrack The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Pt. 2, quickly establishing this singer-songwriter as an emerging voice within indie music. Wilton's sound and influences have been shaped and inspired by a decade of helping other artists craft and create music in his Colorado recording studio, St. Ida's. A metaphor for a child being at the mercy of the wind, this self-titled album proves Wilton's ability to compose music in the places where struggle is met with hope. The lyrics reveal grounded storytelling intertwined with discovery, exploration, and romanticism. A Boy and His Kite layers vocal stylings likened to Ben Gibbard (Death Cab for Cutie) and Jeremy Enigk (Sunny Day Real Estate) with music that offers folk flavors, chimey electric guitars, and percussive orchestration to produce a collection of songs that are honest yet emotionally articulate.

If you want it to be good girl
Get yourself a bad boy
(Yeah I like this, ha ha)

If you want it to be wild
Gotta know just who to dial baby (that's me)
If you really like it hot
Find someone who hits the spot honey (oh yes)

And if you want to get it done
Babe you gotta get the one
The one who's got it goin' on
If you wanna make it last
Gotta know just who to ask
Babe he's gotta be the best (tonight it's me)

If you want it to be good girl
Get yourself a bad boy
If you really want it good girl
Get yourself a bad boy
Get it like it could be, would be
Yeah like it should be
If you want it to be good girl
Get yourself a bad boy

If you like it innovative
Better get someone creative honey (yes)
And if you want it to be jammin'
Gotta get somebody slammin' baby (oh yeah)

And if you want to get it done
Babe you gotta get the one
