Our Daughter’s Wedding is an American band formed in 1979 and originally composed of Layne Rico, Keith Silva and Scott Simon.
The same Silva and Rico that we will find before in a band called 'Human Bends'.
A first Single "Nightlife" was released a year later in 1980, a single that will unfortunately go somewhat unnoticed...
Which is not the case for the next one "Lawnchairs", a sSngle taken from their mini-album "Digital cowboy" which will experience a nice success that year and which will remain as their highest ranked Single of all.
Their first real album "Moving windows" comes out the following year in 1982, an album with limited success to say the least.
A poor performance from which the band will not recover and which will end up breaking up shortly after.
Which will not prevent them from coming back almost 30 years later with a new opus.
To discover or rediscover...

Tracks :
1980...we may have a trendy style and sound, but that's not always enough to make an entry point. The proof...
1980...so the group will have to work a little more if it wants to one day be able to compete with the best. To be continued...
1980...it won't be for this year 1980 in any case. After that, we have to start one day as they say, let's give them a little more time...
1981...efforts that will end up paying off with this title, as if you just had to be a little patient. Here finally comes the first title ranked...
1981...certainly not all the titles will end up ranked during this year 1981 but the main thing is to have ranked at least one...
1981...and to have made a minimum of talk about themselves which is done. It is certain that this group will not reach the top of the Charts but he has what it takes all the same...
1981...a group that went somewhat unnoticed but whose discography was not without merit, that's already something as they say...
1981...they will never have succeeded in producing THE title which could have made all the difference but they will have at least tried...
1981...not all bands can finish at No.1 in the Charts, that's for sure. After all, there's still room for the smaller ones...
1982...a year 1982 which will not see any major changes concerning their style and their sound. No major changes therefore no necessarily upward results...
1982...but they weren't ridiculous in the end, far from it. They were just a little short on inspiration to really make a difference...
1982...that didn't stop them from leaving a mark on history so that we still talk about them today...
1982...an adventure that was worth living considering the number of titles produced, that's for sure. Nothing exceptional but good work regardless...
1982...it must be said that the competition was such during this decade that existing at the highest level was a pure and simple feat...
1984...they were not well equipped enough to achieve this feat but they tried anyway. Isn't that the main thing...
2012...we thought we'd never see them again and yet here they are back almost 30 years after their last titles. As it turns out, nothing is ever over in music...
2012...an unexpected return that can only delight the core fans to the highest degree. Core fans who are bound to ask for more...
2012...especially since this return is not without interest, it must be said. There is still talent in this group...
2012...so we have to wonder if this title will really be the last ? Only time will tell...
