The Wild Bunch Sound System

When looking into the music scene and how it grew into the Bristol Sound, I came across two things I wish I could have mentioned in the main articles. The first thing is that I wish I could go into the hip-hop scene in Bristol, as there is a lot of information and history about this genre in Bristol. Secondly, I want to go in-depth about the Wild Bunch Sound system and group, which is why this blog exists.

The Wild Bunch were a "sound system outfit based in the St Pauls district of Bristol, England from 1983 to 1986." (1). The shows would contain a variety of genres containing punk, R&B, reggae which later developed into trip-hop.

The members of The Wild Brunch included Robert Del Naja, Grant Marshall, Andrew Vowles and Tricky, who later on paved the road for trip-hop with their group, Massive Attack
