New York, NY (Top40 Charts) "F.I.A". is the latest explosive single from The Wild Things (Radio 1, BBC Introducing / Featured Artist, Amazing Radio).
Driven by a desire to capture their high-energy live performance to tape, the band have come roaring back from their last single 'Tell Me Why' (Clash
Music premiere) with an anthem for the ages.
This is a story of staring into the darkness, feeling that pull from the edge of the cliff and coming back ready to fight.
F.I.A. is about taking what scares you and using it to become stronger.
You only get one shot at this, make it count.
When Sydney Rae White, Cameron White and Rob kendrick decided to form The Wild Things they had one goal - to enslave the human race and end life as we know it. When they realised how much effort that would be, they decided to use their shared love of hard rock and sweet harmonies to make a band instead.
"You don't realise when you make a decision like enslaving the human race just how much admin is involved" says lead singer Sydney White, an actress who has appeared on BBC's Uncle, Misfits & 2016's remake of 'Til Death Us Do Part. "I agree," chimes in her brother Cameron White, "so for my part I decided to write songs."
And write he did. In fact, there isn't a facet of the work the band don't actively control - writing, production, videos, artwork, band aesthetics... Musically, the band found their love of Phil Spector & the 60s live recording sound hit something special when they pushed their work such as 'I Think You Can Do Better' & 'Tell Me Why' into rock territory. "All hail The Wild Things, future rulers of Earth" chimed in lyricist and guitarist Rob Kendrick, also an actor to be seen in Sky1's After Hours and BBC's The Syndicate, and it's hard to disagree with him. When asked to describe the band's style, he calls it 'A Lacto-ovarian chanting discourse that takes the veins of electo-reggae-opera and karate chops it into the heart of blues-rock-disco- baroque-more-blues."
