Wilder

Wilder was a band formed (and disbanded - phew) in the early 1990s. They were somewhat out of kilter with the prevailing mostly dreadful grunge music of the time, being more indie dance (one might even venture “Second Wave of Madchester”). The band belied their rockist moniker, being slightly shambling with avowed non-muso leanings. The band auditioned the colourful and talented Katrina (co-lead vocals on “thinking of you” by Colourfield) who attended with cans of lager for the musicians and revealed a long held desire to perform naked. (!). Unfortunately she didn’t get the gig (I suspect at her volition). The band was courted by several record labels but alas did not secure the desired contract, being overlooked for the likes of Kerosene (more attuned to the the aforementioned prevailing wind - methane in my opinion - of grunge).
