Miles first band (in which he played drums) was called From Eden, and featured future members of another successful Stourbridge group, Pop Will Eat Itself. After leaving this band he formed The Wonder Stuff and was their lead singer and principal songwriter until their split in 1994. The band's original line-up released four albums as well as 20 singles and EPs including "The Size Of A Cow" and "Dizzy" with Vic Reeves.. Miles briefly presented 120 Minutes on MTV Europe until mid '95, when he formed a new band Vent 414 . He then toured as a solo performer for a time until he reformed The Wonder Stuff in 2000. The band continue to tour. He also co-wrote and sang the theme tune to the CBeebies television programme Underground Ernie.

In this excerpt he told me how The Wonder Stuff was formed.
