Miles has lost none of his dry wit and wry approach to life. One of the most charismatic songwriters Britain has produced ; expect plenty of banter and Miles’ unique take on the world with a few Wonder Stuff classics thrown in for good measure.
Formed in 1986 the band released their debut album-The Eight Legged Groove Machine in 1988. Singles such as unbearable launched them into the pages of NME and many a festival. Their follow up - Hup proved to be even more of a commercial success spawning top 20 singles such as Golden Green and Don’t Let Me down Gently. Appearances on Top of The Pops followed.
Never Loved Elvis firmly established The Wonder Stuffs credentials as top 5 chart botherers; The Size of A Cow proving to be their biggest single to date. A number one single (Dizzy) with Vic Reeves and further success with their forth studio album saw the band further establish their credentials.
