A few words about Wiggler: Mr! Erik is 30 years old. Wiggler was formed in Vancouver, BC, Canada 1993. Mr! Erik put an ad in the Georgia Straight looking for band-mates. No luck. Not the right people. Unbowed, Mr! Erik whipped out the drum machine and started a band anyway. Too weird to be punk, too sardonic not to be. Wiggler is the evolution, revolution and devolution from punk to noise to funk to punk again. Onward, upward and outward. Hate the sinner but love the sin, baby.
No The Yeah!! - came out in September 1994.
Call o'th'Wigghut - came out in May 1995.
Bring the Fudge - was never released publicly 'cos I started working on "Wiggler vs. Godzilla", but I have some friends who have copies and it was completed in early 1996.
Wiggler vs Godzilla - Valentine's Day, 1997 (pictured above).
Wire Mother - May 10, 2002 (pictured above)
I'm not sure if I can explain my motivation. I don't hear what I want to listen to on the radio, so I have to write my own songs. I started out at 15 as a singer in a punk rock band in southern Ontario. Since then, there have been many shows, many bands and many moons. Anyway, this is where I am now. C'mon out to Vancouver!
