I went to see David Gedge with the BBC Big Band last night in Leeds, doing a selection of Wedding Present & Cinerama songs, especially arranged in a jazz stylee (not by Gedge!). It was part of the FUSE Leeds Arts Festival and was recorded by BBC Radio 2 for Claire Teale's big band show

The announcer said it would be broadcast in two half-hour slots on consecutive Mondays 1st & 8th June

I won't spoil it too much but I can honestly say it was a strange and beautiful affair and I heartily encourage fans of The Wedding Present (or for that matter jazz) to try and catch the show..
