Bio

The Wings are a roots/reggae/dub trio on the move.
They are young, have musical talent to burn and play a hip, reggae-infused, original style of music that has widespread youth appeal.

After they had won a major band competition in 2005, the guys started to get serious about "gettin' their music around the world" - music for which they are becoming renown. Over 20 original, solid and
album worthy songs plus a few, carefully selected covers. They have also just recorded their debut demo at the plush Velvet Sound Studios in Sydney.

The band features Jim Wilson out front on vocals, electric guitars, 6/12 string acoustic guitars, lapsteel guitar, didgeridoo, djembe (not all at once!) backed by the solid rhythm section of Liam Copland (bass, backing vocals, melodica) and Kieran Ryan-Colton (drums, guitars).

While the band itself is fairly new, their friendship goes back several years and is now evolving into something fresh and vibrant through a commitment to their music and lifestyle.

Their biggest influences come from the New Zealand dub scene (Salmonella Dub, Trinity Roots) and the Australian roots scene (John Butler, The Beautiful Girls, Xavier Rudd)

Their earthy style and emerging talent have seen them added to the lineup for The Illawarra Folk Festival 2006 and the annual South Coast
"Park Custom Bike Show 2006".
In the meantime, regular bookings are starting to come the band's way. The band have also played the
prestigious Heritage Hotel, Wollongong's finest live music venue.
