Wild Child
is a Los Angeles based act with 20 solid years of performance
in the competitive L.A. Music Scene. Faithfully re-creating a
live Doors Concert on stage. The music is painstakingly reproduced
and combined with the voice, look and essence of Jim Morrison
live on stage (performed by lead singer Dave Brock). Wild Child
tries to mirror the depth, energy and emotion of The Doors concerts
as they were live back in the late 1960's. The Band also utilizes
the same musical instruments live as The Doors did over 35 years
ago. Wild Child performs internationally, playing to packed venues
around the globe.
Front man,
Dave Brock, started his role as the Lizard King by grabbing the
lead in the" Jim Morrison Rock Opera," produced by
the late legends sister, Anna Morrison Graham. Anna personally
selected Brock for the part. From there, he started the band
"Wild Child," whose reputation rapidly spread from
Southern California to remote areas of the world. Wild Child's
first show at The Whisky a-Go-Go was on July 3rd, 1986. A long
string of sell out shows at The Whisky has continued for Wild
Child to this date. Wild Child broke right into the national
act venue circuit, and continues to play across the country and
abroad to packed touring act venues. Many experts have complimented
Wild Child's rendition of a Doors concert, some of which are
listed on the Press
page
of this site. Concert goers leave Wild Child concerts in amazement
and disbelief, many of which are quoted here at Fan Reviews. The band relies on
stage craft and musicianship to create an event that people will
remember, without corn ball antics and pretentious banter. This
is a serious, touring re-creation stage show!
Two years
ago the band produced "Wild Child - Live In Concert" a 22 song double disc CD set
of songs that The Doors made popular on stage as well as songs
from their last album that they were never able to perform live
with Jim Morrison, due to his unexpected death. Recorded 100%
live, this CD set can be purchased and MP3 clips can be heard
on the Wild
Child live double CD page of this site. Below is what one expert
said about the CD set :
[Wild Child's live CD] has been in production for over
a year as lead singer David Brock has sought perfection on each
and every song. I honestly think that this recording could get
passed off to even a seasoned collector as being a new unheard
Doors live show from the 1960's. It's the most incredible re-creation
that I have ever heard"
