David Gedge

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

David Gedge (born David Lewis Gedge, 23 April 1960 in Bramley, West Yorkshire, England) is an English musician and songwriter. He is the main songwriter and vocalist in the bands The Wedding Present, and Cinerama.

A Cinerama song entitled 'Va Va Voom' (from their first album, of the same name) was used in a Renault advert, and provided the inspiration for a sequence of adverts featuring footballer Thierry Henry.

[edit] Quotes

"I've always thought that The Wedding Present was an inappropriate name for a pop group - more like a poem, or a book or something".[citation needed]
