Miles Hunt - The Wonder Stuff

The Wonder Stuff released their debut album The Eight Legged Groove Machine back in 1988, Hup in 1989, Never Loved Elvis in 1991 and Construction For The Modern Idiot in 1993. The band had three top 10 albums, but are probably best known for hit songs, Welcome To The Cheap Seats, Size Of A Cow and their 1991 cover of "Dizzy" which they released with Vic Reeves scoring the band's first No. 1 single.

In 1994, the Wonderstuff sadly split at Phoenix Festival. 1998 saw Miles reuniting with former Wonderstuff member Malcolm Treece, during which time the acoustic duo toured the US and UK, followed by Miles's solo debut, Hairy on the Inside, where he collaborate again with Malc Wonderstuff fiddler Martin Bell.

Escape From Rubbish Island sees the return of The Wonder Stuff with a more rockier, 4-piece guitar driven sound than the previous albums with a nod to The Eight Legged Groove Machine but with the sophistication of Construction For The Modern Idiot.

We caught up with Miles Hunt to talk, music-making, mountains and marketing, as The Wonderstuff, tour the UK and release their new album, Escape From Rubbish Island (October 2004).
