Let's be honest. There are few bands around the circuit today which are totally original. They don't present a completely new sound, or something that people never ever have heard before. In 2011, bands that make a name for themselves has the perfect combination of inspiration from different rock genres.
Enter The Wheel. And, for the record, they didn't invent it. But after years and years of lending their ears to the people who were there when it happened, The Wheel has learned their lesson.
Combining blistering guitar riffs from 70's references like Led Zeppelin, Free and Van Halen they also give a nod to 80's acts like Badlands and 90's acts like Alice In Chains and Soundgarden. The Wheel takes rock history into our time with great pride, and they're playing like they are an army of classic rock soldiers.
Since forming in 2007, they have been recording their debut album while building a name in the live circuit. Playing alongside UFO, Ken Hensley and The Quireboys at festivals has gained them a reputation of a rock solid live band. Now lend your ears to their debut album, and if you are a true rock 'n’ roll fan there should be elements from many of your favorite bands right there.
The Wheel has just started to roll…
