Hello, and welcome to our Wild Thing Records sampler. Prog is delighted to have hooked up with the pioneering Melbourne-based independent record label and web store to bring you some of the most exciting sounds emanating from the southern hemisphere.
Launched in 2018 as the label arm of touring and management company Wild Thing Presents, the venture comes after years of championing the burgeoning Australian prog scene, including co-promoting Progfest and building the Australian careers of many internationally recognised bands. It prides itself in discovering cutting-edge artists, and includes exceptional releases from Caligula’s Horse, The Ocean, Circles, Ebonivory, Glass Ocean, AlithiA, and many more to come. Enjoy!
“Having worked very closely with international and Australian progressive rock and metal artists for almost 10 years in management and promoter capacities, I felt that the next step was to launch a record label - Wild Thing Records. I’m excited to be working with such innovative and inspirational artists, among such a rich musical scene that’s open to everyone from all walks of life. Prog is a genre that’s welcoming to all, and I’m proud to be part of this amazing international community. We look forward to many more releases to come!”
