3. Bronc Wise, Sweden and Albuquerque, New Mexico
   Calling Mainstream thru C3B; Full-time, Traveling, Recording artist, Callerlab member, Caller Seminars, BMI and ASCAP licensed; Caller since 1975. Professional guitarist and recording engineer who has performed not only on stage, but for radio and tv spots. Recording for New-Beat Productions.

   Bronc joined his first square dance class in 1975. 16 weeks later, he called his first tip. Since that time, Bronc has been featured at dances, festivals, workshops, resorts and caller schools all over the U.S. and 21 foreign countries.

   Many dancers feel that Bronc's smooth flowing hash calls are like "floating on air". They might also warn you to watch out for a twinkle in those big, brown eyes, as Bronc is a fine hash-calling technician known for inventive and challenging maneuvers. He has recorded singing and hash calls for several different record labels. As a staff member of these labels, he has recorded a number of top-selling records.

   An accomplished guitarist, mandolin player and studio technician, Bronc has played on many square dance releases as well as radio and TV spots. His first "on stage" experience came at the age of 12 when he started playing in a rock band. He is currently in the process of recording a compilation of instrumental, surf and rock n' roll tunes. Listen to his MP3 sound bite of "Sweet Home Alabama."

   Bronc and his fiancee, Fia, split their time between their home in Norberg, Sweden and the family cattle ranch in beautiful New Mexico.
