Their debut release was a six-track extended play, Gnawing on the Bones of Elvis, which was produced by the band and appeared in April 1988. Australian musicologist, Ian McFarlane, noted it was “sparsely recorded … [which] mixed one side of electric blues including Willie Dixon’s ‘Bring It on Home’, and one side of acoustic folk tunes”.

In contrast to such reserved performers as Kelly … he had a taste for the monumental. His big, rangy, high-impact voice supported his flair for the dramatic flourish and the grand gesture”. As a performer Wilson showed “a dry, laconic wit between songs, [he] was a fervent, let-it-all-out wailer when he began to sing”.
