Bio
Wild Carnation was founded by Richard Barnes (electric and acoustic guitars) and Christopher O'Donovan (drums, percussion, backing vocals) in 1992; after a few months, Brenda Sauter (The Feelies, Speed the Plough, The Trypes) joined and filled out the band on bass and lead vocal. Chris and Rich then joined Speed the Plough for the recordings of MASON'S BOX and MARINA (East Side Digital, Minneapolis, MN). Soon after, Wild Carnation began playing shows in support of The Bats, Bare Naked Ladies, Luna, SF Seals, The Stranglers, Silk Worm, Veruca Salt, Small Factory and others. It was at an NYU Music Fest show (at the now defunct NY club, Wetlands), in support of Versus, that Wild Carnation met Mark Linn of Delmore Recordings, Chicago, IL (now Delmore Recording Society, Nashville TN). Delmore released Wild Carnation's first single, DODGER BLUE b/w THE LIGHTS ARE ON, BUT NO ONE'S HOME (de702 45rpm) and then the full length cd TRICYCLE (de009 compact disc) to critical acclaim (go to www.wildcarnation.com to read some reviews). In 1999, Anne Hopkins (Farfisa Mini-Compact Organ) joined; and in May 2000, recording began on the band's second full length cd, SUPERBUS, which has just been released. SUPERBUS was recorded at The Pigeon Club by Wayne Durel and produced by James Mastro (the Bongos, Health and Happiness Show, Ian Hunter Band). .. .............. .. .. ..

Tune in to 90.5 The NIGHT (90.5 FM in central NJ or 90. 5thenight. org on the interweb) around 1:30pm ET Tuesday December 16 to hear an interview album producers Jeff Raspe and Keith Roth (with special guest Michael Carlucci of Winter Hours). We'll be premiering a number of the tracks from A Few Uneven Rhymes and talking about the album. Then tune in again later at 11pm to hear Jeff play some tracks on the new music program "Fresh Tracks."
The cover for "A Few Uneven Rhymes: A Tribute to Winter Hours" is now up! It's our new default pic.
Two medleys of music samples are now up in the player! They are in the same sequence that the album is in. See if you can figure out who's playing what, cuz I'm not telling yet!
Info on the first record release party announced too (except who's performing)!
Happy Halloween!
