I always enjoy Carlos Wilde’s music, he has something for everyone to enjoy, his talent is outstanding and he is great at supporting other artist and songwriters along his wonderful musical journey. Thanks Carlos for always sharing your talent with the world, and giving support in return, keep following your musical dreams..

  8. I am so proud of Carlos,I have been listening to his music since the beginning of Indie music, when we discovered each other at Indiehangout, a place where musicians gathered, chatted and listened to some of the best music ever created. At the infancy of internet radio, as a DJ, I had the pleasure to playing his music, and he will tell you my favourite, “This side of paradise” a classic blues song that blew me away. Sometimes it takes a long time to be discovered and appreciated in the Indie world, there are just too many of us, and we get lost, I am so glad for this article, no one deserved it better. Thank you Paul.

    1. Thanks Ever So Much, Paul. Yes, you and I go back a long way and we have always been supportive of each other. Really happy you enjoyed the article and that you dropped by to write some really cool lines. I am grateful.

      1. Carlos Wilde is just one of those artist who seems to have the perfect compositions dedicated to the perfect lyric. His expertise in music has me continually telling myself when I hear his music, dang I wish I would’ve wrote that song. And believe me there are very few songs that I have heard that I would say that about. Carlos you are a class act my friend and brother

          1. Regarding the comments by Ronnie(Big Time Radio) & Greg Fritsch, I was trained by Willi Pack of Candlelight Music in Nashville in the Nashville method. I’ve done a write up that I’ll share with anyone who wants to train their mind to write in metered verse. It actually makes Blues, C&W, Rap, Hip hop & Pop easier to write. I did sound for Muddy’s band & Jesse Guitar Taylor at Stubbs in the first gig after Muddy died. I grew up with Joe Ely, The Maines, Angela Strehli, ZZ, Point Blank, Dixie Chicks, Texas(Band)Joe King Carrasco & my roommate played with SRV & The TBirds. My later friends include Gary Clark’s family, Charlie Sexton, Doyle Bramhall II, Shawn Sahm, Joe Nick Patoski & more. I do the Texas Music Hour of Power every Saturday on Public Radio. If I can help you get interviews, etc., please let me know. I sometimes do Mike Buck’s Blues Show on Mondays, Mike being Robert Ealey’s drummer & the 2nd on in The Fabulous TBirds.

          2. Great stuff, Rix. I remember Charlie Sexton when he was the 15-year-old wonder guitarist. Let’s hope Carlos and/or his publicity people contact you regarding interviews, etc.

    2. It also took a long time for me to discover your kind comment, Evan. Belated thanks. Your feedback is much appreciated.

    3. Carlos Wilde created an amazing sound track and video for my The Goopy Ghost at Christmas children’s story. This amazing artist created a catchy gift for children as well as the adults in their lives with his amazing composition, music, voice and images. He gave of his heart and soul. I love Carlos Wilde.

  9. Thank you Paul Merry for this very well written article. I think of Carlos as an outstanding artist and person.
    Listening to his music is always a pleasure: it tells about his amazing talent and kindness.
    It was very nice getting to know a bit more of his story through such an engaging reading.

    1. Thank you Elena for the kind words – Glad you enjoyed the article. Wishing you the very best of luck with your Hollywood project

  10. Great article! Really interesting! Fantastic to hear Carlos Wilde is doing so well. His music is excellent and so diverse. He deserves much success…an awesome musician and person! xx

  11. ..very interesting article about Carlos Wilde bio..amazing musician..
    ..always a great pleasure to listen to his music..congrats Carlos..

  12. This article makes a great, informative read and it is so gratifying to be taken down memory lane and reminisce over hits such as Black is Black and When I Need You. Undoubtedly an honour to be pinpointed as today’s follow-up to such great musical artistry and true congratulations are in order for a recognition of this calibre. A cool piece of writing talking about a cool musician!

    1. Thanks Angela for such a ‘cool’ comment. It’s nice to hear from someone who remembers Black Is Black.

  13. Apart from being a wonderful singer/songwriter Carlos is also a social media friend whom I not only admire for his music but for devoting time for charities dear to his heart ..a most insightful interview Paul Merry into the mind of a musician ..well done …and to Carlos…thank you for the music ..I also love Fado..so should I say Slainte M’haith ..Cheers …or saúde ..just keep me dancing OK?

    1. Hi Judy – Thanks so much for the kind words, my friend. Totally appreciate it. Keep that sense of humour alive – All the best

  14. What an excellent read! Bravo! I really enjoyed this article very much and getting to know more about the life of such a fine musician/songwriter Carlos Wilde.

  15. Carlos is amazing and after this review, I feel he’s even more amazing. I’m ready to connect Carlos to others in Portugal, some talented younger artists and the entertainment entity I am building now. I m in similar place, I did sound for Muddy Waters Band at the first gig after Muddy passed away, when Drew Pennington(ex-Fabulous Thunderbirds, Nightcrawlers(w/SRV)), Jesse “Guitar” Taylor(Joe Ely Band) and Steve Keeton(Joe Ely Band)opened. I grew up in the Lubbock and Austin scenes and worked with two ex-Ohio Players (and still do). I am not in a place of licensing and producing my music through others and building my own version of the “Brill Building” and this article solidifies my desire to ask Carlos to join me and build our own stable of talent, while also bringing several seasoned veterans in as well, similar to the legendary “Wrecking Crew”. Thank you for this great article!

    1. Only just discovered your comment, Whitney, so belated thanks. Just finished reading Muddy Waters biog so appreciate how highly regarded you would have been to have done the sound for his band. Interesting, too, to hear you grew up in Buddy Holly territory.

  16. I really like what you guys tend to be up to.

  18. A fascinating article that brings back some very good memories like Los Bravos! I can’t be sure when or where I first met Carlos Wilde in the world of digital music online, but I think it was in the days when mp3.com was the place to hang out and strut our stuff musically. It is a testimony to Carlos’s ample talents as a singer-songwriter and musician that he has come so far in this crazy music business, and I was very gald to read about him here.

  19. This is a wonderful article and I read it with great interest. All the links were nicely brought together to introduce us to Carlos Wilde. I came across Carlos in Reverbnation some 6 months ago. I was immediately struck at how his music crossed all genres and really should only need one label “Good “Music”. I was not aware of his history in such depth so that was fascinating to read.
    We live In a music world where pretenders are worshiped as stars. Where they have to be dubbed and can’t carry a live Performance. To see this article on Carlos Wilde a real musician a real Singer Songwriter a real Performer and a real talent is superb. Let’s hope it helps him make his mark. Great writing Mr Paul Merry.
    (PS. I believe John refused his OBE as a way of increasing Publicity so that he could condem the war and raise awareness.)

  20. What a very interesting and thought evoking blog. I love the way it captures Carlos in his true light a musician whom inspires others with his musical talent.I have had the pleasure of knowing Carlos for a few years now and it’s a pleasure to call him a friend and awesome artist. It was a pleasure reading this blog and wish Carlos much success in his future journey achieving his dreams and goals.

  21. I definitely would love to to see an article I’m Carlos Wilde. Honestly believe he would be an interesting article to read about his life his music how intelligent the man is. Carlos is an excellent songwriter.

  22. A great article about Carlos. I started listening to his music about a year ago. Really impressed with the arrangement and delivery of his songs.

  23. These comments exemplify what I have found in Carlos Wilde’s music, yet still with all of these comments it still doesn’t truly portray how magnificently versatile Carlos is with his musical instrument and singing abilities. Carlos, a musical extroadinaire whom I promote daily on BigTime Radio, has skills that elude even the mosts experienced musicians. Not only does Carlos not hide himself away behind curtains (thinking of OZ) to try and let people discover his music alone, he daily submits to his fans and provides appreciation for their love of his music while others are too busy to care.

    When a friend of Carlos, Greg Fritsch, told me about Carlos’ music I thougt to myself, “Oh another Enrique” but I was well ignorant as Carlos is much bigger and better than my asummptions. I cannot tell you how much I appreciated him, his music, his songs and the support he receives from his fans and followers. A commanding musician (experience and style) with a humble “heart of gold”! Keep making us love your music Carlos.

  24. I’ve been a fan of Carlos for quite some time now , and what an amazing talent he is ..his writing excites me …his songs are so catchy and some great party dance tracks among his collection 🙂

  25. I am a new learning at guitar but was introduced to Carlos Wilde’s music and am in awe. His music definitely catches your ears. Love it!!!

  26. I have not known Carlos Wilde that long but his versatility as a musician and song writer allows his songs the ability to cross into different genre’s which is really rare. The art of strong story telling weaving in and out of melodic cord structure’s allows a clear lyrical painting with no clutter. Carlos has grown over the last months and he is not afraid to push the musical boundaries with each song to create a unique signature that is truly brilliant and is definitely done his way.

  27. I ran across Carlos about a year ago on Reverb Nation and was immediately taken by his ability at creating amazing original tunes equally strong both lyrically and melodically, with infectious guitar hooks and solid vocal performances.There is an inherent honesty to his music that’s so refreshing to hear.

  28. I found myself fascinated by this well written article on the multi-tatalented, Portuguese musician, Carlos WIlde. It’s a fascinating piece profiling the history and development of a peerless musician. His determination to blend a love of music and performing while pursuing a demanding career career path highlights his determination and courage. Some of the most talented musicians remain virtually unknown, but something tells me Carlos will work his way through the media mist and assume his rightful place in front of an international audience. From my own perspective, I believe the self-effacing modesty of this fine performer deserves no less.

    1. Let’s hope Carlos bursts through that ‘media mist’, Rob. Many thanks for your preceptive comment,

    2. Thanks Ever So Much, Rob – a very well written blog accompanied by a comment denoting that both of you are eloquent with words – you wouldn’t be writers by any chance, would you? :))

  29. Great article. Carlos Wilde is a wonderfully innovative artist and a great man. It is nice to see someone highlight the career of this excellent artist. I look forward to hearing more from Mr. Wilde and yourself in the future. Here is to keeping the creative light shining.

  30. I found this to be a very interesting article on Carlos Wilde. I will now look out for more items to read about him and his music.

  31. This is a great review! It is encouraging to see an artist of Carlos’ caliper getting some well deserved recognition. I have been a friend and a fan of Carlos and his music for about 15 years. He is extremely prolific and talented. I know it will be simply a matter of time when he will be a household name among the great songwriters of today.

    1. Cheers, Mark. Thanks for your great feedback. Here’s hoping you’re right about Carlos’s future.

    2. Wow, Mark – Thanks – I’ll take that any day especially coming from a person with your expertise – and, yes – we go back a long way and we have always been supportive of each other’s music. All the best

  32. I am so proud of Carlos and I love all his songs,he just gets better and better and I know he will make it big someday.he sings his songs from the heart and with feelings,good job Carlos!!

  33. Hello. My name is Judy Rae Jae, I’m a pianist and composer from the the USA. I first encountered Carlos’ music a few years ago when I put some of my original music on YouTube, Twitter and Facebook. I was immediately enthralled with the wonderful musical style of my now, good friend- Carlos Wilde. I love his way of telling a story, and the cool rhythmic way his words ebb and flow ( a bit contrapuntally) with the music- very well executed! I was always an admirer of his music. I wish him much success in any and all aspects of the music business.

  34. I have considered Carlos a phenomenal musician, artist and brilliant song writer from the first time I heard him. After reading this informative article, I am all the more impressed. Whether it be his top five or his All Music page each one of his songs is a splendid musical gem. Always find myself returning, enjoying the music of this exceptionally talented artist. Consider him an awesome musical friend!

  35. Carlos is an amazing artist! I was honored to discover his music and feature him on my daily morning show The Morning Brew with Tom Slick. His sound is loved by our listeners and his sound is completely original!

  36. This has been a most interesting read Paul. I have known Carlos for a few years now and I consider him to be a most impressive songwriter, musician and performer. It’s no surprise to learn that on his Reverbnation site, he has acquired over 26000 fans who between them have played his songs over 122,000 times which is phenomenal! There is much to enjoy about his music that is built on feel good hooks, infectious chord progressions and well written lyrics. He really has a good voice too which is a big asset when you’re working with co-writers and trying to communicate with the world what you hear in your head. Thank you Paul for this excellent article and I wish Carlos the success he thoroughly deserves.

    1. Thanks for another insightful comment, Paul. I only wish I had a voice like Carlos’s not to mention his ability on the electric guitar.

  37. A very nicely written article. I’ve only been acquainted with Carlos for a short while but enjoy listening to his music immensely. I’s great to see him getting the recognition he deserves and what’s more he seems like a very nice guy too.

  38. Carlos Wilde is a hard working musician dedicated to his craft. I have recently become acquainted with his stimulating music and find it very refreshing to hear something so original. He can blend funk soul and rock together and then overlay the whole thing with some witty clever lyric. I would say he is a talented songwriter and musician deserving to be recognized. Tunes like ‘Rok Ma Wurld and ‘She Smiles Like An Angel’are just a few of many fine examples of Carlos Wilde’s unique irresistible talent.

  39. Carlos is a world class prolific songwriter, with an unique ability for creating melodic vocal and instrumental “hooks”. I often have his songs pop up in my head out of nowhere. Which is always a pleasure.. Also he is very encouraging and supportive of other songwriters. A true friend in the world of songwriting.. .. Billy T Scrapper

  40. This is a great blog about Carlos, I’ve found out a lot of interesting information !! I love the energy and passion that shines through all his work, he’s a good un !! Also he always comes across as a nice man – that’s the most important bit !! He’s a great song writer and performer as well, I have great respect for his talents !! So rock on Carlos you’re a Eusebio !!

    1. Eusebio ‘The Black Pearl’ brings back great memories of the 1966 Football World Cup held in England, as I’m sure you know, Roy. For non-soccer fans, Eusébio da Silva Ferreira was one of the greatest players ever, for Portugal and Benfica. You couldn’t give Carlos a greater compliment.

        1. Indeed I did watch it, Carlos. It was the World Cup semi-final and a riveting game. Bobby Charlton scored twice for England and
          Eusebio (who else) got one back with a penalty for Portugal. England went on to defeat West Germany 4-2 in the final. I did a somersault and opened up a wound I had on my ankle after coming off a motor bike. Two weeks later I was in Alassio, Italy, playing table football against Italians. Happy days.

    2. Wow, Rob – Thanks very much, my friend. It’s flattering but also very humbling when a musician of your calibre writes a comment like this. And for me, Eusebio will always be the player Portugal can be totally proud of.

  41. Love Carlos’ music. Have been a follower for a few years now and it has been joy to see the growth and development over that time. I know there is still much more to come and I’m really looking forward to hearing and sharing that.

  42. As a college radio host, I have played Carlos’ music for several years. Listeners always call in after hearing one of his tunes. The music is sincere and well-crafted. GOOD STUFF!!!!

  43. Being from Downunder, I heard of Carlos through some of our mutual friends on FB. His music is so pure, with beautiful clear lyrics, great melodies and a sound that is both enjoyable and lasting. I agree with Mr. Paul Merry, in putting Carlos up there with the other greats from the Iberian Peninsula and with the “Wilde”” greats, especially Marty and Kim. Fantastic Rockers and although not related he has the genes of the name.

  44. I first came across Carlos when I joined what was then a very popular forum for independent artists back towards the beginning of this millennium! He was touting his first two big hits back in those days, “Staring at the Dark” and “Dreams” and I was knocked out on my first listen. I’ve been a fan since then. Thank you so much for putting your spotlight on such a talented artist! I wish him all the best and every success!

    1. Many thanks for your kind words, Felicia. I’m so glad you like the blog. You can find it online at paulmerryblues.com and the provider I recommend is GoDaddy. They are very fair priced. My website was designed in wordpress by Stacey Blood, leader of the Nashville blues rock band The Bloody Nerve, simply because he liked the blog and wanted to help get the message of blues out to the people. That’s why I write the blog, too, to keep the blues alive and promote my book on the evolution of the blues, America’s Gift, which you can find, should you be interested, at http://goo.gl/At5AZe
      I also have a YouTube channel where you can view my home-made historic blues and rock films at http://goo.gl/UQ8id8
      Stacey designed the look of the blog out of the kindness of his heart for which I am eternally grateful since it’s programmed in code which I simply cannot fathom. If you look at the bottom of the blog, you’ll see that The Bloody Nerve are my sponsors.
      As for issues with the blog failing to present well on certain devices or platforms, I’m afraid that is totally beyond my control. Thanks once more for your comments. Feedback such as yours make it all worthwhile

    Carlos is decidedly a class act and one hell of a talented singer/songwriter!

    1. Many thanks for your feedback, Rick. Glad you enjoyed the piece and totally agree with you about Carlos, his songs and his humanity.

    2. Thank you for the kind words, Rick. Glad I could shed some light on some of your social media issues – Artists helping Artists is the only way forward – Have a great day!

  90. What a diverse background Carlos Wilde has! So much inspiration for his music, especially from Ireland, I’m guessing. Thanks for enlightening us about this talented gentleman, Paul. Best wishes to you and your music, Carlos.

  91. Such a cool blog reflecting the diverse talent of Carlos Wilde. A MULTITALENTED musician, congratulations on the rave review well deserved from Author Jude Haste UK

  92. Great article! I’ve been a fan of Carlos Wilde for over a year now, connecting with the kind-hearted and compassionate rocker on Twitter. Not only is he a nice guy, but he’s also a gifted singer-songwriter and musician. The first time I listened to a selection of his songs, it was vaguely reminiscent of blues rocker Rober Cray…with a little twang. If there was ever an artist worthy of striking it big, it’s Carlos Wilde! Rock on, Carlos!

    1. Well, RC, you got your comment done, so well done; and thanks very much for taking the trouble to provide such positive feedback.

  93. What’s Taking place i’m new to this, I stumbled upon this I’ve discovered It absolutely useful and it has helped me out
    loads. I hope to give a contribution & help different users like its
    aided me. Great job.

  94. Carlos Wilde is an exceptional songwriter and artist, a rare talent! Each one of his tracks is a superb musical gem and stellar performance! I am delighted that you have written such a splendid, informative article on Carlos! I wish him continued success in all of his musical endeavors!
