WICKHEAD is a driven, passionate alternative rock band that hails from the beautiful yet volatile city of Johannesburg, South Africa. Against all odds they have risen through a challenging time of violent crime, social change and cultural alienation in an evolving country.

“Homeland, Harsh land, it forged us out of hottest fire Each love, each life each challenge helps to make us who we are” Bittersweet Farewells

Since February 2000 they have received numerousaccolades in their challenging but stimulating segment of the South African Rock market. WICKHEAD’s energetic and inspiring live show goes hand in hand with their powerfulmusic and positive lyrics:

“Don’t give in, Don’t ever give it up – If the sky is falling down on your head” – Bright Lights Blvd

“I must carry on, no matter what goes on, and I’ve gotta not get ahead of myself… Gotta live for the moment” Anthem

After winning two LA Music Awards in 2006 and making the necessary contacts, WICKHEAD decided, in July 2007, to throw caution to the wind and relocate to Los Angeles, California.

The choice paid off… having never worked with a producer before, Rob Hill did wonders producing their debut international release “End is the Beginning”. He brought cohesion and an experienced edge to their work.

WICKHEAD is extremely proactive and hard working with a clear vision and dedication and continue to grow as they build a strong fanbase and awareness in LA. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
