biography
We are Bec (drums), Joe (bass), Jay (synths) and Sam (vox and guitar) and we are Wilder, named after 40s film noir legend Billy Wilder and a weird bot from the original 80s Transformers cartoon.
Think Friendly Fires, The Whip, The Rapture, The Gossip, the digital itch of Boy 8 Bit, new wave Talking Heads, some Neu! Kraut-groove, Captain Beefheart, the Velvet Underground, Little Richard, 50’s R&R and some foxy old art-school era Roxy Music. At least thats what people tell us.
We’ve toured with The Strokes’ singer Julian Casablancas and played shows with the Maccabees and I Blame Coco. And that’s the story so far.
