Biography
Main Street Wisdom's Carleen Wild's father, Bill, loved to play his country music in the car and soon Carleen was singing along with Patsy Cline and Loretta Lynn. After college, she met Dan Smith at the TV station (Dan a morning show host/ Carleen a news anchor) they worked at in Madison, Wisconsin. Before TV, Dan travelled the country with bands that played everything from Hank Williams to the Band. After a couple of kitchen table jam sessions, they agreed to "get something together musically." Eight years later, Carleen called Dan and invited him to join her quartet struggling to play somewhere else than her basement. He did and invited his son guitarist Ben and singer-songwriter Greg Arenz to join. Today Main Street Wisdom draws large crowds to hear everything from Lady A to Hank Williams and yes, a little Patsy Cline. Bill Wild wouldn't have it any other way.
