Will
Wilde has taken the harmonica way beyond its blues roots since
he first emerged on the music scene in 2010. Always pushing
forward, evolving and redefining his sound, Wilde is now ready
to take the rock world by storm.
On his latest album,
Bring it on Home, Wilde’s hard-edged harmonica steals the
spotlight from the traditional rock guitar, with a sound that
owes as much to Jimmy Page or Ritchie Blackmore as it does to
Sonny Boy Williamson or Little Walter.
Wilde says he's inspired
by artists like Rage Against the Machine guitarist Tom Morello.
“I’m interested in the creative, unconventional way that Morello
approaches his instrument. I’m always looking to make new
interesting sounds with the harmonica too, pushing its
boundaries, trying to change people’s perception of it.”

introducing
Bison
Hip were formed by long - time friends during a lockdown Zoom
call in 2020. "I don't know who suggested it first" explains
vocalist Paul, "but right away it seemed like a great idea.
Maybe it was the mid-life crisis at play!" The band are all over
50, with the exception of keyboard player and spring chicken,
Stephen, clocking in at a youthful 41. By the time they finally
got together in early 2021, the blueprint was clear. "We wanted
to take our love of blues and rock, then mix it up with our
experiences in life" adds Paul. "Between us, we've been through
so many things in life, big ups and huge downs, some successes
and a whole load of failures, we wanted all of that in the
music. Lastly, we needed to wrap it all up in the DNA of our
hometown, Glasgow, and hopefully that's what we've achieved".
With 2 EP's already released, the ethos is clear: real
musicians, real instruments, no click tracks, culminating in a
unique blues rock sound that tells real life stories. With a
debut album on the way in April 2023, Bison Hip have hit the
ground running. "We've arrived at the party fashionably late, so
we're making up for it now!"
