biography
The Wonder Stuff are a UK-based alternative rock band originally hailing from Stourbridge in the West Midlands in 1986. The group released four albums and almost twenty singles until their split at the Phoenix festival in 1994.
Reforming in 2000, they have since continued to tour and record (albeit with a few line-up changes along the way) ever since with their most recent seventh album, 'Better Being Lucky', being released in 2019.
The group will be celebrating their 40th Anniversary in 2026 with a number of shows and festival appearances planned, as well the release of a live recording of their December 2025 shows.
Co-credited on the UK Number One single 'Dizzy', with comedian Vic Reeves, the group acheived their own highest single chart success in 1992 with 'Welcome To The Cheap Seats'. They also have six singles listed on the Billboard Alternative Songs Chart.
But if you've visited Room 512 before, you know the biography was always SO much more than that..... I'm working on getting all of the original biography converted across as quickly as possible but given this site started in 1994, there's a lot of content that doesn't work with current browsers etc. anymore. Bear with me....
