Jesse Wilde - Vocals/Guitar
Born to an East Auckland family, Jesse Wilde started playing the guitar at age eleven after watching a TV rerun of the Elvis '68 Comeback Special. Jesse played in a couple of garage bands as a kid, before working in the construction industry for a brief stint. At 19 he quit this job to gig and record with his first serious successful band, Acoustic Attitude before going on to record his first solo project when the band ended after 3 years. Jesse then embarked on a music-inspired pilgrimage of the United States where he met his three music heroes; John Mellencamp, Bob Seger and Steve Earle. Upon his return to New Zealand, Jesse started recording his second solo project with a new band while also studying for a New Zealand Certificate in Contemporary Music Performance Art. At the same time, he got signed to what turned out to be a frustrating record label deal, compelling him to build his own recording studio. Jesse now works from his second recording studio, a 1955 inner city ex-clothing tactory that he and his partner Cath have transformed into the world class Wilde Records/Studio 38 in the heart of Auckland City. Jesse's current band Wilde Storey is an Americana Rock Trio he formed with Dylan Storey and Earl Robertson. Jesse has recorded over ten albums in his career so far and he regularly performs gigs around New Zealand.

Steve Tree - drums

He has also appeared on nationwide television on a number of occasions, and toured the country and Australia with The New Zealand Blues Brothers Tribute Show.

Dave Munnings - Lead Guitar and Vocals
Dave grew up in the Auckland music scene, having started playing guitar over 30 years ago, he has played in many successful covers bands over the years, playing at many pubs, clubs and functions. He is well respected and passionate about everything he plays and sings and is super happy to take on the role of Mike Campbell in the “Refugee” tribute show.
