Wirepony

This is a man and a band full of contradiction.

The music is deeply personal, somtimes anthemic, self assured and tough. It is equally self desroyed and without confidence.

It swaggers, beats its chest.
Whispers a gentle carress.

To me Wirepony’s songs and singing do what so few do today: they span the full human experience.

Love and loss: vitality and fragility.

A father of the U.K., a farmer by trade; mother an American with deep Southern roots.

The music is as influenced by Woody Gutherie as it is the Who; it’s as diverse as Johnny Cash is to the Clash.

The words are of Old England, Route 66, King Arthur, and a still young gold rush California.

This is a band with a strong command of words and a fullness of heart. This is music at it’s best. This is Wirepony.
