Wild Eyed, Wicked And Oblivious

A Folk Band whose quirky orginality is refreshing

Come Wander into Our Musical World

Wild Eyed Wicked and Oblivious, at the Heritage Centre Cider Festival on Gower

Wild Eyed, Wicked And Oblivious are a great band to see live, original, quirky with great harmonies, a wonderful sense of fun, and toe tapping, sing along songs. Their music is refreshingly different.

Folk with a hint of 60's harmonies, African rhythums, ska, a tea chest bass, and electronic wind instrument, 12 and six sting acoustic guitars, madolin and a great percussion.....Singing tales from the past, and zulu dreams. Calling down the moon, Dancing with out light pollution , love, loss and a copper-waltz.

Pete sings in the strong 'soaked in experience' voice of a Londoner concentrated by a journey through time, Jane, Karen, and Shane add tight harmonies...to lyrics that rhyme well and rise to simple repetitive choruses that can be quickly learnt by a willing audience. Nigel on the Cahon combined with Islywn’s home made tea crate base... a single string held taught above a hefty rectangular sounding box, something so simple shouldn’t be so good but it is. Hold the soungs together with great rhythms and strong percussion, making it impossible not to tap and dance along.

"A strangely elegant collection of eccentrics who create a world through their buoyant and instantly memorable songs. Once you have seen them once, you are a part of it." James Rees. Musican and Events Manager.

"Imagine a cross between Ian Dury, and Bob Dylan, throw in a bit of the Pogues and a splash of Clannad and you are half way there."

"This Band are a great sound, original, quirky, entertaining, excellent, great fun live.... Incredibly amusing to watch."

‘SING!’ Pete calls ‘C’moA hn. You know it by now, Sing!’ And we do.
