The "semi legendary UK indie band" are returning to Bangkok following their triumphant debut in the city last year. Support is from local favourites, Matthew Fischer and the Fishes.

THE WEDDING PRESENT
The Wedding Present have had eighteen UK Top 40 hit singles… not bad for a band that has, from its inception, stubbornly refused to play the record industry’s game. It all started in 1985 when David Lewis Gedge boarded a National Express coach in Yorkshire with 500 records packed into a pair of his mother’s suitcases and, in this fashion, delivered the band’s debut single, ‘Go Out And Get 'Em, Boy!’ to a distribution company in London. That pioneering spirit has been at the core of the band’s philosophy ever since.

From ‘George Best’, the first full-length release on their own Reception Records onwards, the band has charted an appealing, if often eccentric, course of its very own, acquiring a reputation for bittersweet, breathtakingly honest love songs immersed in whirlwind guitars.

The band is making a welcome return to Bangkok, following last year’s triumphant debut in the city, to celebrate the 30th anniversary of their sophomore lp, the incendiary ‘BIZARRO’, which featured their first hit single ‘Kennedy’.
