Everything about Will Sergeant totally explained
Will Sergeant (born
12 April 1958,
Liverpool) is an
English guitarist, best known for being a member of
Echo & the Bunnymen,
Electrafixion and
Glide. Born in the centre of Liverpool, he grew up in the suburb of
Melling.
Career
As a
solo artist, Sergeant focused on minimalism and atmospherics, and usually released entirely
instrumental music. Sergeant's first
solo work was in 1978, when he self-produced
Weird As Fish and made a total of seven copies. The
album was officially released 25 years later. Early in the life of Echo & the Bunnymen, Sergeant recorded
La Vie Luonge, a
soundtrack piece for a short Bunnymen
concert film of the same name. His first formal solo album,
Themes for Grind, was released in 1982, while still active with Echo & the Bunnymen, and reached number 6 on the
Indie album chart.
Sergeant continued with the Bunnymen even after
Ian McCulloch left in 1988, bringing in
Noel Burke to sing on
Reverberation in 1990, before breaking up the
band. In 1994, Sergeant and McCulloch reunited to form
Electrafixion. The band toured extensively and released one album,
Burned, in 1995. After a few
singles and more touring, the band began to play a large number of old Echo & the Bunnymen
songs at their shows. In 1997, the Bunnymen reformed.
Sergeant also returned to solo work in 1997, under the moniker Glide. That year, he released the live
Space Age Freak Out, followed by another
live album,
Performance, in 2000. Glide began to tour, and would often open for Echo & the Bunnymen in the early 2000s. Glide released
Curvature of the Earth in 2004.
