The Webb Wilder character was created for a short film about a backwoods private detective who fell out of the 1950s and happened to also be a musician. With his groups like The Drapes, The Beatnecks, The Nashvegans, Wilder combines the straight-ahead rock & roll with surf guitar of the Ventures and twang of Duane Eddy, drawing on the feel of blues, R&B, country/rockabilly and film noir. His sound incorporated influence from Americana music as well as from the British Invasion.
Webb Wilder appeared as actor in Peter Bogdanovich's 1993 film The Thing Called Love.
Wilder currently resides in NashVegas, Tennessee.
