Biography
Their vocalist Walter Seyffer had fronted numerous bands during the 1960’s. He claims to have established Nine Days Wonder in 1966, -then known as The Graves- who gradually transformed into Nine Days Wonder proper in February 1970. Walter got together an unlikely collection of musicians from Germany, Austria, Ireland and England, to create a diverse rock fusion encompassing all forms of Krautrock and showing distinct Frank Zappa and British progressive rock influences.
