In this episode of A Breath of Fresh Air with Sandy Kaye, founding bassist Graeme Clark and frontman Kevin Simm open up about Wet Wet Wet’s incredible journey.
From their Glasgow beginnings in the 1980s, through chart-topping hits like Wishing I Was Lucky, Sweet Little Mystery, and Goodnight Girl, to the global success of Love Is All Around from Four Weddings and a Funeral, the band’s story is one of resilience, reinvention, and timeless music.
Graeme reflects on the band’s rise to fame and the pressures of success, while Kevin shares how joining Wet Wet Wet in 2018 gave the group a fresh new chapter. Together, they discuss writing new material, keeping their sound relevant, and connecting with generations of fans through albums like The Journey.

Hello, I’m Sandy Kaye. A freelance broadcaster, journalist and producer who has spent more than 35 years on both sides of radio and television microphones. I’ve worked with every TV network in Australia, have produced and presented for countless radio stations around the country and have hosted my own commercial radio talk-back show. I’ve even held the distinction of being Sydney’s first female newsreader on radio – way back when!
Today my passion is A Breath of Fresh Air which allows me to immerse myself in one of my favourite things – music. I just love all kinds of music and am fascinated by the people who make it. In particular, it’s the music of the '60s '70s and '80s that takes me back to my youth and means so much to me.
As a journalist, I’m all about digging deep into the classic hits of our time.
I bring you intimate, warm, fireside chats with the artists who tell us about their lives both then and now.
We learn about what makes them tick, who they are in their professional and private lives and how they went about making the soundtrack to our lives.
'A Breath of Fresh Air’ is exceptional - exceptional not because of me, but rather because of the stories that some of the best-known musical artists choose to share with me.
I created this podcast to honour them. It’s all about THEIR lives, THEIR stories, THEIR music, told now, in THEIR voices, before they’re lost forever.
I see my podcast as a personal labour of love, but also as an archival legacy for music fans and practitioners alike, both current and future, who otherwise might never know of the amazing people who helped build the industry.
I really hope you enjoy each and every episode of A Breath of Fresh Air.
