The Wynd - ProfilesArchive

About Me

Two EPs, two dozen live performances, four drummers, numerous broken relationships, radio play in Ireland & the UK and more hangovers than a Gazza-hosted pool-party. A band so mythical, so rarely sighted, that even the band members themselves sometimes wonder if they actually exist. The Wynd have achieved all this and more during their five or so years as a fucntioning beat combo, although functioning might be too strong a word. Their live performances might be rarer than a Dodo's egg signed by Lord Lucan, but thanks to the sheer quality of their songs, their dashing good looks, sparkling wit and the passion they bring to the stage (when they can be arsed), The Wynd endure. They are loved, feted, and ignored in equal measure. Recently signed to Pub Justice Productions, The Wynd are currently recording their debut album, almost four years on since their debut gig. They are currently scheduled to play Glastonbury in 2034.
