THE WEDDING PRESENT BIZARROΒ 35th ANNIVERSARY US TOUR ANNOUNCEMENT
TICKETS GO ON SALE FRIDAY NOVEMBER 15 AT 10 AM
In 2025, The Wedding Present will be playing a series of concert dates in North America to commemorate the 35th anniversary of the release of their classic major-label debut long-player,Β BizarroΒ [“Simply unbeatable” β Melody Maker].
David Gedge says “BizarroΒ was our second album, and you can hear on it how much we had learned from the experience of recording our debut,Β George Best. You only have to listen to something like ‘Bewitched’ to notice that there’s much more in the way of texture and depth onΒ Bizarro. We’d just improved as songwriters and arrangers, basically. It’s no less frenetic a record, though!”
