the Wilderness
	Rock & Roll in its nicest white suit, covered in red wine, with a crown of barbed wire over its head. "Lead singer Lee Piazza's stage presence and powerful vocals can either put you into a mellow groove or demand you to dance. This drives the Wilderness, but without one of the tightest bands in the city backing Lee, it would only go so far..." - Dan Wolovick, TwoWayMonologues.com “Rock traditionalists that merge flowing vocals with impeccable blues-driven guitars, straddling the divide between alt-roots and supercharged indie rock. An energetic, rapturous live show.” - The Lonely Vagabond, Toronto

THE TAKE MEDIA - REVIEW OF THE WILDERNESS' NXNE SHOW - "A++++++++"
LIVE at VELVET UNDERGROUND, TORONTO
JUNE 16, 2010

The Wilderness like to throw a party. As soon as the lead singer jumped up on stage (and barefoot, no less) he repeatedly beckoned to the crowd until they came closer. Launching into their first song while bouncing around the stage like an atom, if you will, they were undoubtedly the stars of this night. There was also a hula-hoop dancer in the audience, another [interpretive?] dancer onstage, and balloons flying around everywhere (the lead singer handed them out to the audience during the songs.)

The singer also managed to gather whatever balloons he could find and punch them back out into the audience. What’s more, he carried around a glitter shaker and sprinkled glitter on everyone. All while he was barefoot, by the way. Yeah. I seriously thought I might have been slipped drugs for a moment, but later discovered I was completely sober.

Last but not least, there were signs with the lyrics written on them held up during one of the songs. So, for invoking audience participation, the Wilderness get an A++++++++. It actually became more like a party than a concert by the end of their set.
