BIOGRAPHY The story of Violet Wild began long before their first show in July 2006 at Last Exit in Tempe, Arizona where they played in front of what was a lot of doubters with low expectations. The birth of Violet Wild consisted of 3 days on a cruise ship with no way off. Bobby Scott (formerly of Mink Rebellion) and Joshua Kennedy (formerly of the Black Moods) closed the book on their bands and came together with chemistry like nothing they had experienced in their careers. The magic was formed in the middle of the Pacific Ocean in February 2006 and Violet Wild became history in the making. They rushed into the studio to record their first LP and with a rock-n-roll life of only 4 months and no additional members, the LP was recorded by July 2006. Due to uncontrollable circumstances the album was shelved. With determination and hard work, Violet Wild mustered up the means to go back into the studio with accomplished producer Joe Marlett in March of 2007. The band which now had acquired a 3rd member Joey Schwegler on drums began to re-record the album. After diligent work in the studio, the recording was complete. Since their first show in 2006, the band has been signed to Big Panda Music, and is set to release their EP in August of 2007, their full LP worldwide in January of 2008 as well as set out for their US tour in February of 2008. Starting over without the humble comfort of their previous groups, Scott, Kennedy, Schwegler and Lowman are a passionate electrifying force that’s poised only to get stronger. Their music is well written, crafted, diverse and ready to take on the world. If you don’t know them by now, you will. “Violet Wild is not a local act” “These guys are ready for what ever lies ahead, they are true contenders to make it big”. -Robin Nash/ Edge103.9 DJ in Phoenix, AZ.
