Wilson Music Video for "Zed" COMPLETE!
Recently the esteemed film director, and all-around quality guy, Greg

music video for the FW song "In Walked Zed," so we screamed a collective
"HELL YES, GREG!" The results of this collaboration can be viewed right
now! You need the QuickTime player to view these videos, so go
get it if you don't have it.

LISTEN TO MP3's FROM THE 4/9 KSCR SHOW!
The Fred Wilson rock machine is poised and ready to pounce, like a hungry puma, on the annual International music conference South by Southwest in Austin, TX next week (3/18/04 to be precise). Band members are fine-tuning their guitar-wielding rock n' roll leaps and humorous onstage banter in an effort to woo the jaded record executives into an 8-figure record deal. If that doesn't work, guitarist Weston Radcliffe plans on carrying a concealed weapon and threatening bodily harm. Either way, it is sure to be a splentastic weekend of rock. Big ol' props go to Mike Galaxy of Indie Hits for inviting Fred!
Here are the showcase details - COME TO AUSTIN!
The February 2004 issue of Playboy magazine features actress Jaime Pressly on the cover. On page 131, amidst the... ahem... beautifully shot photographs... is a reference to the movie Fred Wilson is currently scoring! This can only help build the buzz for the film, and hopefully for the band!

The year-end edition of Music Connection Magazine (12/8/03 issue) features Fred Wilson on page 68, as one of the top-25 demo CDs they reviewed in 2003! There is no cash prize or fan-fare, but it still feels good...
