About Me

wendy wang is the sweet hurt.
in high school, her 4-track recordings brought sweet justice against those who moved on to bigger and better things. midi and a digital recorder was the fancy upgrade that was used to convince friends to play in her band.
in the summer of 2004, wendy retreated to the old acoustic style recordings and self-produced a 4-song demo. then in early 2005, The Sweet Hurt Demo EP, which featured a full band. In the spring of '06, a 4-song EP titled "Everyday Mistakes" was recorded.
The newest EP "In The Shade Of Dreams", drops on June 7, 2008 . she wants everyone to know that she's bringing a love that's true, so get ready, get ready...

Buy the "Everyday Mistakes" EP from CD Baby or iTunes .
