7053 is comprised of Derek Wunderlich, a singer/pianist/songwriter. Formerly the lead of The Betting Fraternity and Forgotten Sounds, Derek has taken his songs and presented them in a stripped down solo appeal. It's raw.Band/artist history
There was a time when I couldn't express myself. No hugs, no communication, no love. In 1996 I discovered playing the piano, singing, and writing. I found a way to get it out. I decided, wish encouragement, to play my song with a band for the high school talent show. I won the grand prize. Seeing how my song, something so important to me, impacted people's hearts and minds, pushed me to get my message of LIFE out there. While a performer at Paramount's Great America I continuedmy musical career. I joined bands, and performed all around the bay area and even some in Los Angeles. Making people think was what my message was. Just to think.Have you performed in front of an audience?I love doing live shows, it's then you can get that raw emotion. I used to play all over the bar area with my bands, but decided to only do select shows when I felt it was needed. I am open to anything.
