Details:
Mike Wilde is one of the best kept secrets working in the field of contemporary music. As a Songwriter his works have been compared favourably to luminaries as diverse as Diane Warren, Alison Krauss, Cat Stevens and many others. His Songs touch people, crossing cultural, age and gender boundaries in a way that few Artists are able to.
His debut album Special Stories is a culmination of 10 years of travels, having lived mainly in Scandinavia since relocating to Europe from his native Australia in the late 1990´s. Years of studio and Live work as a vocalist, bass player, guitarist, keyboard arranger and producer have produced an artist and an album which are both classics.

Mike Wilde Ìs Music has a personal intimacy and a broad musical spectrum that seductively draws you in to the songs and makes you want to sway along. Well travelled musically, he plucks effortlessly from a number of genres : Traditional Pop, Funk, R&B and even a waltz, in the case of the dreamlike You Ìll Carry On Ì. Special Stories is an Album that you want to listen to again and again. With delicate Trumpets, Strings, Guitars and mellow Fender Rhodes tones it Ìs a pleasure for fussy listeners that want elegant and intelligent music without the syrupy feeling.´
