CHRIS WYSE's OWL Performs On KTLA Morning News; Video Available

May 13, 2009

OWL, the band fronted by THE CULT bassist Chris Wyse, took part in a short interview and live acoustic performance of the song "Alive" on May 11, 2009 on the Los Angeles TV station KTLA. Watch the segment below.

OWL released its self-titled debut on February 10 via Overit Records. The group is described as "one of the best-kept secrets on the L.A. club scene," a band featuring three electric musicians who have joined together to create something that is more than the sum of its individual parts — a collaboration between Wyse, his longtime pal, drummer Dan Dinsmore, and guitarist Jason Achilles.

Wyse is well known for his skills on bass (especially the stand-up bass) and vocals. Besides OWL and THE CULT, he has played with Ozzy Osbourne, Jerry Cantrell and Bob Rock, just to name a few. He even auditioned for METALLICA, but the post went to Robert Trujillo. Wyse also plays in CARDBOARD VAMPYRES with Cantrell and THE CULT guitarist Billy Duffy, and subs for his buddy Chris Chaney (JANE'S ADDICTION) in CAMP FREDDY, a JANE'S ADDICTION/VELVET REVOLVER side project.
