Wild Colonials

Scottish-born vocalist Angela McCluskey fronted the traditional folk-tinged ensemble whose lineup also featured Shark on guitar and vocals, Paul Cantelon on violin and piano, and Scott Roewe on piano, bass, horns, and whistles. Following a series of gigs in L.A., DGC signed the group and issued their debut album Fruit of Life in 1994. Two years afterward the band delivered This Can't Be Life as well as Reel Life, Vol. 1. in 2000.
