Mike McDonald

Mike McDonald formed Jr. Gone Wild in 1983. They broke up in 1995, and recently re-banded in 2013. The original band of McDonald, Dave Lawson, Ed Dobek, and Dove Brown toured for three years before releasing their debut album Less Art, More Pop! The LP received enthusiastic college radio airplay in Canada and the US, while Jr. Gone Wild came into its own touring night after night in clubs across North America. In 1989 the band released its second recording, a cassette-only collection of live tracks and demos entitled Folk You/The Guido Sessions. After signing to Stony Plain Records in 1990 came Too Dumb to Quit, followed in 1992 by Pull the Goalie, and then the final album in 1994, Simple Little Wish. In the current line-up McDonald is joined by Steve Loree , Larry Shelast , and Dove.
