The Wedding Present will be playing a series of concert dates in Great Britain in 2026 in order to commemorate the 35th anniversary of the release of their pivotal long-player, ‘Seamonsters’.
Following the release of ‘Seamonsters’ – which was recorded by the legendary Steve Albini in twelve days during 1991 – The Guardian noted that: “Albini has given The Wedding Present considerable weight, with Gedge’s voice trickling between banks of scowling guitars” and went on to feature it in its list of ‘1,000 albums to hear before you die’. Despite its uncompromising sound, the album reached No. 13 in the British album charts and has been hailed as a classic.
On all concert dates the band will play ‘Seamonsters’ in its entirety along with other songs carefully selected from their extensive repertoire. The tour includes stops at the O2 Academy in Leeds, O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire in London, and O2 Academy2 in Leicester.
RCA Records are also commemorating the anniversary with a limited edition re-release of the album on ‘Deep Sea Blue’ colour BioVinyl.
