  • I Catherine Wheel sono un gruppo rock britannico formatosi nel 1990 a Great Yarmouth in Inghilterra. Il gruppo è composto dal cantante/chitarrista Rob Dickinson (cugino del cantante degli Iron Maiden, Bruce Dickinson), dal chitarrista , il bassista (sostituito da per il tour di Wishville), e dal batterista . Il nome del gruppo deriva da quello di un fuoco d'artificio. Sono stati attivi durante l'intero arco degli anni novanta, iniziando come band shoegaze per poi evolvere il proprio suono prima verso sonorità più hard rock, poi più pop. Nonostante la solida base di fan (specialmente negli Stati Uniti) e gli ottimi riscontri critici la band non riuscirà mai a uscire dal mercato di nicchia, e proprio questo mancato successo contribuirà al suo disfacimento. L'ultimo album e l'ultimo tour risalgono infatti al 2000 e da allora il gruppo è entrato in una "pausa di riflessione" che non si è ancora conclusa.Il gruppo risulta ancora sotto contratto con la Columbia per altri due dischi, e a tutt'oggi non è mai stata data ufficialmente la notizia dello scioglimento, anche se in realtà i vari membri del gruppo sono al lavoro su altri progetti.
