Full Biography
Wild Clover was formed in the early part of 1997 when some of the Midland’s most versatile musicians joined together in what at the time was a modest project with ‘fun’ as it’s main purpose.
Described in one newspaper as ‘raw endlessly energetic Irish folk’ this 4-piece band produces a huge variety of tunes and songs both modern and traditional that satisfies the widest spectrum of audience. So whether you want them to play at a wedding an Irish function or at your local bar Wild Clover’s musical versatility enables them to suit any occasion and with over ten years of entertaining through music they can be relied upon for an event of the highest calibre.
In just three years Wild Clover has gone from being four separate musicians to producing their own CD "A Fuller Picture" which sold out in advance sales before a note was even heard thanks to their ever-growing army of supporters. They have sold out theatres in self-produced Irish shows complete with dancers. They have headlined at the prestigious Bromsgrove Folk Festival and have appeared on the bill at a number of others. They performed for around 2000 people on Millennium night in London and they have appeared for an estimated audience of 5000 for a music festival in Birmingham’s Cannon Hill Park.

John P booked Wild Clover for their Wedding in Nottinghamshire
“I found the whole process of booking through Alive Network easy and secure. Confirmation of everything was sent and Wild Clover rang me a few days before the wedding to confirm the date and venue and to check what music I wanted. I was therefore happy and not worrying the night before the wedding as I knew that every thing had been well coordinated. Wild Clover’s performance was outstanding. They were relaxed and friendly and played with energy and enthusiasm. All of our guests really enjoyed the music and my new Irish relatives were thrilled . My husband and I danced to his favorite Irish folk song – perfect. The band even played whilst my new sister in laws sang to us. I can thoroughly recommend this band to any one wanting a relaxed , professional Irish band who can set the evening alight – thank you Wild Clover for helping make our wedding a success. ”

Nina O booked Wild Clover for their Wedding in West Midlands
“So what did I think of Friday's band?... ...they were absolutely fantastic!!! Dare I say it, but I'm glad that our first choice got snowed in - I think they suited the audience much more so it alll turned out even better than expected. We have had so many amazing comments about them - all saying that they got the party started! Some of the committee members were at the party and all have asked for their details as they would love to see them play one evening at the Irish Club. The twosome that played on Thursday night also got their details as they thought they were great. So thank you for managing to find someone on Friday at such short notice - what could have been a disaster became one of the best and most memorable evenings of our life. Please pass on my thanks to every member of the band. Best wishes, Nina ”

Carla D booked Wild Clover for their Wedding at Sussex Barn in Norfolk
“I accidently found Alive Network while google searching for a band for our Wedding, they were very quick & friendly in getting back to me with my query regarding availability etc. We had Wlid Clover booked in no time. We dealt with David from Wild Clover close to the wedding to clarify first dance etc. On the day the band arrived set up & started on time & they were really impressive. They got the guests up dancing to 'set dances' which were great fun. A lot of guests commented how good the music was & really enjoyed it. Thank you Wild Clover for a fantastic night of entertainment! ”
