Blending the cosmic energies of Nu-jazz with modern rock sensibilities and live eletronic devices, the music of the Wrong Object is influenced by a vast array of artists ranging from Canterbury Scene prog rock à la Soft Machine and Gong to Squarepusher, Béla Bartok, Amon Tobin, Aka Moon, Charlie Mingus and Frank Zappa. While their repertoire contains mainly original compositions, they also play a special set of Zappa covers on demand. Since its creation in early 2002, The Wrong Object has has collaborated with guest musicians such as Ed Mann, Elton Dean, Harry Beckett, Annie Whitehead, Alex Maguire, Robin Verheyen, Steven Delannoye, Bart Maris, Marc Mangen, Domguè, Marco Maurizi, Nicolas Ankoudinoff, Clementine Gasser, Frogg Café, Jaap Blonk, and pataphysician-poet-vocalist Andrew Norris, whose work with the band culminated in a show held at the Galerie 2016 in Brussels on the occasion of Serge Vandercam's 79th birthday. The Wrong Object have
toured extensively in many different countries
(including England, Germany, France, Italy, The Netherlands, Czekia, Slovakia,
Wales, Greece,
Luxembourg and even
Belgium) and their live recordings have been favorably
reviewed and
aired by radio stations across the globe. Their side projects “Elton Dean Meets The Wrong
Object” and “The Wrong Object feat. Annie Whitehead and Harry Beckett”
were documented by two CD releases issued by Moonjune Records and
Voiceprint.
The Wrong Object's
internationally-acclaimed studio album, Stories from the Shed, was released by Moonjune Records in 2008
and led to several European tours whoses repertoire was documented in
Live at Zappanale (2010), which featured Stanley Jason Zappa on
guest saxophone. The band are currently working on a new studio album,
to be released in the Spring of 2012.

Aux confins du rock, du jazz et des musiques improvisées et électroniques, l'univers musical du Wrong Object a subi les influences les plus diverses : de la musique progressive de Soft Machine à Aka Moon, en passant par Béla Bartok, Squarepusher, Charlie Mingus, Amon Tobin et, enfin, Frank Zappa, dont nous présentons régulièrement les compositions sur scène. Le reste de notre répertoire contient exclusivement des compositions originales mêlant des sonorités rock, classiques, free, jazzy et funk, le tout teinté d'humour et d'ironie. Depuis sa création au printemps 2002, The Wrong Object a lancé de nombreux projefts impliquant des invités prestigieux des scènes rock et jazz tels que Ed Mann, Elton Dean, Harry Beckett, Annie Whitehead, Alex Maguire, Robin Verheyen, Steven Delannoye, Bart Maris, Marc Mangen, Domguè, Marco Maurizi, Nicolas Ankoudinoff, Clementine Gasser, Frogg Café, Jaap Blonk et Andrew Norris, pataphysicien notoire dont la collaboration avec le groupe a culminé en mars 2003 en un spectacle conçu autour de l'exposition de Serge Vandercam à la Galerie 2016 à Bruxelles. Suivirent de nombreux concerts et des tournées internationales (Angleterre, Italie, Allemagne, Hollande, France, Tchéquie, Slovaquie, Pays de Galle, en Grèce, Luxembourg et même en Belgique), de nombreux passages radios et près deux centaines d'articles de presse. The Wrong Object a également lancé plusieurs nouveaux projets dont “Elton Dean Meets The Wrong Object” et “The Wrong Object feat. Annie Whitehead and Harry Beckett”. Ces projets ont donné lieu à deux enregistrements officiels publiés par les labels Moonjune Records and Voiceprint. Stories from the Shed, album studio sorti chez Moonjune en 2008, a rencontré un succès critique considérable et a donné lieu à son tour à plusieurs tournées européennes dont le répertoire est documenté sur le CD Live at Zappanale (2010), lequel a bénéficié de la collaboration de Stanley Jason Zappa au saxophone. Un nouvel album studio est en cours de réalisation - il sera disponible chez Moonjune Records au printemps 2012. |
