Wrong Direction
Wrong Direction features the world’s most politically incorrect boy band, who in simply beautiful harmony, sing songs that you wouldn’t want your mother to hear.
Written by Chris Wilcox, who also features as a band member, the songs are inspired by a slew of male vocal groups, from One Direction to El Divo. That Wilcox spend much of 2016 performing on cruise ships as a guest performer in Human Nature’s Soul Mates, may also have been an influence.
All of the quartet are WAAPA graduates and stunning singers. Joining Wilcox are gorgeous baritone Cameron Steens, a dimpled and charming Ben Gillespie and a cheeky and charming Jason Arrow. Although backing tapes are used for most cover-songs, the original songs, which are far from the fluffy fare usually associated with this genre, are generally accompanied by Arrow on key-board, Wilcox on guitar and Alex Barker on drums.
Wrong Direction sing songs with themes that are definitely politically incorrect, potentially offensive and sometimes just a little unnerving, but they are very, very funny and sound amazing.
If looking for some late night entertainment, Wrong Direction is a great choice with clever comedy and excellent music and a lot of fun.
