Bio / info
Robert Wyatt (born Robert Wyatt-Ellidge, 28 January 1945) first came to notice as the drummer of Soft Machine, then went on to become one of the most creative forces in independent music. In 1963 Wyatt joined the Daevid Allen Trio with Allen and Hugh Hopper. Allen subsequently left for France, and Wyatt and Hopper formed the Wilde Flowers with Kevin Ayers, Richard Sinclair, and Brian Hopper. Wyatt was initially the drummer in the Wilde Flowers, but following the departure of Ayers, he also became lead singer. In 1966, the Wilde Flowers disintegrated, and Wyatt, along with Mike Ratledge, was invited to join Soft Machine by Kevin Ayers and Daevid Allen. Wyatt left Soft Machine in 1971 and began a prolific and diverse series of collaborations and solo recordings spanning jazz, rock, and avant-garde styles.
