A Bit About Us

Wireless are a four piece Indie Rock covers band based in the Midlands. Originally formed over twenty years ago (going under another name back then) Wireless have gone from strengh to strength. Originally calling themselves 'Blaze', Wireless have always been a covers band, although changing their sound (and members) throughout the years.

Starting gigging in the late 90's Blaze had a line up of Guitar, Keyboards, Bass and Drums to complement the musical style of 90's Indie and Brit Pop. From this original line up, Kev Wright on Drums is the only member still to be playing with the band.

After a few years, along came the arrival of Phil Carnell on Lead Guitar replacing the Keyboard, thus changing their sound from melodic Indie to a more raw, rockier sounding band that they are today. Matt Clarke and Rob Ball have completed the line up and Wireless are now one of the best covers bands you will hear in and around the Midlands.
