Details:
Pete Wild started playing ukulele aged 5 when he lived in central Australia and was really into his BMX.
He learned keys on a piano rescued from the bucket of a bulldozer at a demolition site.
Over the years Pete has loved The Beatles, Ben Folds Five, Woody Guthrie, The Bedridden, The Wayfaring Strangers, Roxette, The Cure and has read the whole of Catch 22 out-loud to his wife.
Pete writes the best songs in the whole world...according to his mum and sister. They’re lovely, honest, dorky, funny, real, clever & ridiculous. He plays, piano, guitar, ukulele or any other instrument you chuck at him.
Pete lives in Candelo which is the centre of the universe.
Recorded in the Bega Valley in six different studios with eighteen musicians over eight months, Pete Wild''s debut self titled album is a collection of songs that tell an array of stories in a myriad of styles - bluegrass, rock, polka, broadway, epic-dirty-melancholic-folk ballads...
