WILD CHILD, based in Los Angeles, California, has recreated a live DOORS concert with lead singer Dave Brock, whose looks, vocals, and stage antics capture the essence of a Jim Morrison performance. The band not only accurately recreates the look and the sound of The DOORS, they also capture the urgency of the lyrics and music.
Formed in 1986, WILD CHILD has carved out an incredibly successful niche for itself on the west coast club circuit. Thanks to a tour of Europe, Wild Child fans span the world. Today, the band emerges as the hottest live act around, performing to sold out crowds everywhere.
Ray Manzarek (DOORS keyboardist) has introduced the band on several occasions, proclaiming "This is as close as you’ll get to the real thing. John Densmore (DOORS drummer) has called Brock's sound and moves uncanny, and spoke about WILD CHILD in a recent interview, and Robby Krieger (DOORS guitarist) has been known to ‘jam’ with the band.
WILD CHILD performs at premeire clubs throughout Southern California and throughout the United States. The band has toured Europe and played many famous venues. WILD CHILD frequently headlines at the Whisky a Go-Go in Hollywood, performing for 3 generations of Doors fans. Nearly every shows sells out.
A live CD of Wild Child is available for purchase at their shows and from the band's website.
