The Wedding Present
The Wedding Present is a rock group formed in Leeds, UK, 1984. They evolved from the ashes of the Lost Pandas. Their music has evolved from fast-paced indie rock in the vein of their most obvious influences The Fall, Buzzcocks and Gang of Four, to more varied forms. The Lost Pandas fell apart in 1984 when singer David Gedge's then girlfriend Janet Rigby, the drummer for the band, left him for guitarist Michael Duane (later of Dustdevils). Gedge and the Pandas' bass player, Keith Gregory, decided to continue the band, renaming it The Wedding Present.
