David Cronenberg's Wife is the brainchild of Stockport-born songwriter Tom Mayne. Having moved to London, following an undisclosed past in the north of England, Mayne formed DCW in late 2002. With a rapidly changing entourage of degenerate musicians and a host of disturbing yet humorous songs, David Cronenberg's Wife has been a big swinging dick in London's Antifolk scene, along with such acts as AryanSuperQueer, Albert J. Springsteen and Hitler's Wet Panties.
