Biography

Neil Wiger is a guitarist and multi-faceted composer
who grew up on Beatles and Black Sabbath compounded by Slayer and Metallica experiences. He is also known in the midwest rock circuit as "Ace Carrol" and "The Reverend Kowboy Luv".

He prefers to work alone in his small studio, as his results are more pure, and "raw".

He has played guitar, and or sang in the following groups - Tempest, Rocket, The Sleepfarmers, Postmortem, Dead Member and a few others.

Neil's first musical ventures began in 1981 when he was five years old. His father Brent Wiger was a good friend of Moorhead guitar hero Kenny Raredon. Between Kenny and Brent there was no lack of good guitar teaching.

Later in his years, Neil began to dabble in singing, drumming and bass guitar. These experiences lead to his ability to orchestrate his own primitive 4 track productions.

'Till now Neil's greatest claims to fame have been to work with Mike Sackman in there early nineties speed-metal band, TEMPEST. (circa. 1991-94) and his authorship of a biographical book entitled - Regina Carrol: Drive-In Starlet.

Neil's other work's include the remastering and mixing of a live album for BLOOD DRIES BLACK of Moorhead, Minnesota. As well as the creation of cassette distribtion company T-Independent Film & Records in the early nineties. T-Independent was responsible for releases by such acts as Plan 9 (Sweden), North Pride Posse (Michigan), Broken Cross (Oklahoma), John the Baker (New York) and several others.
