r.i.p. Bonnie Tyler. At early Wevie gigs, in between tracks, Rich wevie used to spontaneously sing his own acapella version of Total Eclipse Of The Heart. “Once upon a time I was running a pub, now I’m only running a bath..” Always went down a treat.

I made a new album with Mr Vast - and this video to go with it. It’s called “Upping The Ante” - and is probably a terrible idea commercially and artistically, but we did it anyway 👍 It’s out now. Come and have a listen if you need to up your ante: tr.ee/_--EU-7NC7

Wevie Stonder returned to Skam with their first album in 16 years, and such an occasion requires further celebration. This mix for Bleep unravels all of the wildly eclectic sounds and styles that have powered over two decades of iconoclasm. Listen Now: bleep.com/bleep-mix-309-wevie-stond…

'Wevie Stonder's approach is akin to that of Cassette Boy, Mr Scruff, or Matmos at their cheekiest. In an era of disposable music, where the lifespan of a record rarely extends beyond its release week, perhaps the comedy album can shine?' Wevie Stonder - Sure Beats Living buff.ly/5tICsQX

Well that’s another thoroughly bizarre @weviestonder.bsky.social journey! Genre defying and as usual discussing the topics other bands refuse to acknowledge 😆 I really don’t know where to start so can only suggest that you listen yourself 🔥 Thanks again gents, it was worth the wait 🙏

Our new single ‘Vanja & Slavcho’ is out today on all digital platforms that you can buy / not buy / listen to or not listen to our music on. Why not do all of those things? It features a tale about some talented twins and my kids are singing on the end of it. Lovely. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bk1C...

We've got a single out and here's a vid about it. Feel free to message your favourite 6 music / Radio 3 / NTS / Rinse FM / Country FM DJ’s or your local M.P. and request that they play it. The VO was recorded on a Canadian golf course inbetween mower action on the greens. Nothing but carpet, W.S. X

Possibly the most obscure advertising campaign ever but after over a hundred thousand clicks and nearly a thousand enquiries I did actually manage to sell two records. Significantly better results than trying to maintain a promo list or get a review anywhere.

Wevie Stonder @weviestonder.bsky.social · 20/11/2024

So enthused with the world of mail art, a year later, we held another: ‘The Future of Dogs’; this time making songs for the exhibition on a Casio (some of which ended up on Eat Your Own Ears) and a talking dog made from chicken wire and an old curtain - which somehow ended up on the news channel CNN

030

Wevie Stonder @weviestonder.bsky.social · 19/11/2024

Fact 6. Once, after being sent the wrong mail, we surreptitiously joined an international network of mail artists - and sent out invites on the theme of ‘The History Of Dogs’. We received dog art from all over the world, which after exhibiting a few times, Chris accidentally left on a bus in Brazil

Wevie Stonder @weviestonder.bsky.social · 19/11/2024

Fact 5. During a gig at a festival in a haunted castle in Ireland, someone/thing managed to defecate on stage during our set - unseen by any band members (2 of whom were crowd surfing at the time), or the audience.

Wevie Stonder @weviestonder.bsky.social · 19/11/2024

Fact 4. One of our tracks - ‘Gypsy Chimp’ - was used to bring a man out of a coma. Just to make sure, his wife later asked us to play it live at his ‘Happy Birthday, you’re not dead’ party. It was a good night. (I think he’s still alive)

Wevie Stonder @weviestonder.bsky.social · 19/11/2024

Fact 3. The first W.S. record was called ‘Eat Your Own Ears’. We were very proud of the title - which was later stolen from us by a London based music promoter and used as their company name. We're not bitter. We just came up with even more stupid titles to stop anyone doing the same thing again

030

Wevie Stonder @weviestonder.bsky.social · 19/11/2024

Fact 2. Our name was given to us by our pal Mark - who, on hearing our first (and very wrong) attempt at ‘I just called to say I love you’ said it sounded more like Wevie Stonder. It seemed like a good idea at the time.

020

Wevie Stonder @weviestonder.bsky.social · 19/11/2024

Fact 1. W.S. began in 1979, when me and Rich recorded some chickens down an old telephone onto tape, and played it back while hitting a biscuit tin and a 3 stringed guitar.

Bluesky seems to have awarded us an Invalid Handle - not sure what that is but I like the sound of it. Might come in handy, you never know.
