Bobby Alderman - Vocals

Robert K (Bobby) Alderman started playing in bands at the age of 14, first drumming with a country band making weekend pocket money and singing a handful of songs. He eventually moved to Virginia Beach, where he joined a rock band that toured the east coast throughout the mid-late ’80s. The ’90s saw Bobby moving into the production world as a sound and lighting technician, which led him to tour with some of the world’s greatest performers.

Bobby has always been a Rolling Stones fan and he has continually been told “You look just like Mick Jagger!”, which eventually fueled his desire to recreate the iconic moves, styles and sounds of one of the greatest front men to grace the rock and roll stage. Fast forward to the present: Bobby has found the right band mates... The Wilder Horses band is paying an authentic and accurate tribute to Mick Jagger and The Rolling Stones.

Michael Mosgrove - Guitar, Vocals

Mike Mosgrove’s infatuation with music started at a young age, getting his first guitar at age 9 after falling into an inescapable love of Rock n’ Roll. Subsequently lured into the rhythms of Chuck Berry, Bo Diddley, Buddy Holly and the Rolling Stones, the guitar became a passion for Mike, and by age 14, a fanatic obsession with the Rolling Stones ensued. There wasn’t a member of the Rolling Stones he didn’t study, eventually emulating all four of the guitarists contributing to the volumes of Stones music.

Mike went on to play professionally with several bands in the NYC area as a teen and at 19, he landed a spot playing with Chuck Berry, his “idol’s idol”. Mick went on to write, record and perform steadily as a guitarist, often utilizing the myriad of tunings employed by Keith Richards on numerous Stones numbers. When asked to join Wilder Horses, his reply was “I’ve been waiting most of my life for this phone call and I’m having a blast playing Keef!”

Paul Johnson - Guitar, Vocals

Paul has been playing professionally since 1982. He was a founding member of Waxing Poetics - a band who released three critically acclaimed LPs, toured the US, and featured heavily on MTV. In 1992, Paul moved to NYC and backed many artists as well as playing on numerous recordings, including The Master Plan that released two albums featuring his songwriting, guitar playing and singing. The Master Plan toured North America and Europe playing their brand of garage rock.

Paul now fronts his own band Electric Johnson along with David and Peter. When asked to join Wilder Horses, he said "I really only know how to play my own songs, Chuck Berry, and The Rolling Stones! It's how I learned to play guitar." At the audition he could not believe the chemistry of the band. "I had been talking about these guitar parts with Mike for years, and now I get to play them with him."

David Hunter - Drums

David Hunter first began playing the drums in 1973 and has been enamored with the instrument ever since. His earliest and foremost drumming influence was Charlie Watts; indeed, David’s first professional-level drum set purchase was Gretsch, “because that’s what Charlie played.”

David has been playing drums professionally for 43 years and counting. He’s shared stages with countless national acts over the years, as well as recording 2 LPs with national recording artists Channel One. He feels just as passionately about music now as he did when he was just starting out. “I find it both gratifying and humbling that I’ve now come full circle in my drumming career: from starting out as a young player imitating Charlie Watts to portraying him onstage today with The Wilder Horses band.”

Pat Myers - Bass Guitar, Vocals

Over the decades Pat has played with successful regional bands such as Locals Only, The Boneshakers, Nitro Lounge, Deja and many more. He has been a songwriter and studio session musician on multiple original music studio releases.
