The Wolfmen Cometh

Instead of two people to creatively stifle and push around, Wolfmother’s Andrew Stockdale now has three. After Chris Ross and Myles Heskett departed the group last year, Stockdale has hand-picked a rag tag mob of local musicians including Aiden Nemeth (guitar/keys), Ian Peres (bass) and Dave Atkins (drums).
Stockdale and his new cohorts made their live debut as “White Feather” at the Oxford Arts Factory in Sydney on February 8. And according to reports on Faster Louder, all seemed to go off without a hitch. Big hair. Check. Epic jams. Check. Pompous licks, vocal histrionics and colossal beats. Check, check, check.
The band reportedly played seven new songs including new crowd favourite ‘Pilgrim’. The band’s next performance will be in front of 90,000 screaming bogans on the final day of the Clipsal 500 in Adelaide in March.

hahahahahahaha. That is fucking excellent :)
I think you'll find that Ian Peres plays keys, not Aiden Nemeth.
(Why do I do so much post facto subediting of your articles?)
What other bands have these dudes been in?
Nazareth, Des Peres and The Atkins Dieteers.
So are they still called Wolfmother or is it White Feather now?
aidan nemeth was in a rad band called the mopers in brisbane in the late 90s. dave atkins is the drummer from resin dogs. i dont know about ian, sorry, but he is the keys player.
Ian replaced my girlfriend as keyboard player in a band called the Combovers. He also has a Stockdalesque afro, which is important, right?
dave atkins was also in pangaea as well
