indie rock, jangle pop
The Wedding Present, led by the indomitable David Gedge, has been a stalwart of the UK indie scene since 1985. Known for their jangly guitars, Gedge's witty and often painfully honest lyrics about love and relationships, and a consistently evolving sound, they remain a beloved cult act. Their live shows are energetic affairs, packed with beloved anthems and sharp, insightful songwriting.
