Metal electro rockers WENDIGO have revealed plans to independently release their debut 5 track EP this summer following 6 months successful PR across the MySpace community.
The band, working under the guidance of Bangkok based Producer, Sunny Bigalo (SAE/STAA), announced their line-up in the autumn of 2006 after a meticulous global audition process that had started at the tail end of 2005.
Described as a cyber rock band, the original foundations of WENDIGO were laid early last year with Sunny’s desire to create a band which would bring together different nationalities and cultures working towards the same goal. The original concept was to form and produce a metal group but as the artists came together with their unique musical cultures, the melting-pot of styles altered the direction considerably which lead to the band’s unique approach to the genre.
Sunny realised that what he wanted wasn’t type-cast heavy metal artists but a band with distinctive styles that could approach the field in their own inimitable manner, mixing and matching their musical ideas
And so the concept of WENDIGO was transformed into reality. A series of demo recordings were made with Scots born singer-songwriter Jay Burnett recording his vocals in the UK and Sunny mixing the tracks back in Thailand.
The next step was to see if the demos would spark interest and catch the imagination of the public. Since the band was self-described as a cyber rock, there was no better place than the internet to put their music to the test.
The band’s MySpace profile went live online in August 2006 with a demo version of ‘The Other Way’ complimenting the eye-catching graphics on display and tempting the community to listen and respond. And they did in their thousands.

REVIEW
THE OTHER WAY is trademark WENDIGO. An anthem for the MTV generation, it hooks the listener from the start with an almost trance inducing bass line followed by a severe wake-up call of crunching guitars. Front-man Jay takes control with his melodious lead vocals on a flight of torment.

REVIEW
THE DAY I TRIED demonstrates the bands ability to put on a more insightful face. The song crosses the divide between pop-rock and archetypal metal with its commercial and seductively kicky hooks.
COMING SOON...
MORE THAN I BELIEVE is a tour-de-force that leaves you uplifted. The influences of guitarist Sunnys Asian roots are prevalent throughout the track. The music is heart felt, intensifying with emotion, rising up and rocking you out.
With a series of shows lined up in Thailand this summer to promote their debut release and with the continued development of the Management Team, WENDIGO have never been as ready as they are now to sign a major recording contract.
We look forward to experiencing more and more success as we continue to develop this project.
To continue promoting the site we set up our own international management team run by ourselves through our fans. The promo teams are based in countries where WENDIGO feel they have the opportunity to reach new audiences and in turn give ourselves a stronger fan base with which to use to attract potential industry awareness. Whether selling merchandise, promoting shows or targeting prospective Record Companies, the team work hand in hand with the band such is their dedication.
And that commitment is already paying dividends. Since the site began just 9 months ago, the band has amassed a fan base of over 20,000 and that figure continues to rise on a daily basis.
