The Wedding Singer Podcast

Tribute bands have long been a source of ridicule, in part for their lighthearted pun names such as Hi-On Maiden and Wrong Jovi, and for their outlandish costumes and mop-top wigs, but have perceptions changed?Each week we’ll be joined by some of the  best tributes around. We’ll dig deep to find out what it’s like, why they do it, whether they’re worried about the stigma, and, of course, whether they’re wearing a wig or if it’s their own hair.The first season is coming soon so make sure you follow or subscribe to The Wedding Singer, wherever you get your podcasts.Podcast music ‘Is This Me?’ by Le Groupe Fantastique: https://open.spotify.com/artist/7FlQCX64zpAI2b32kmjWM5?si=IzzWkV4kSMmii_a60N4z6QCatch The Strokes tribute band New York City Cops live: https://newyorkcitycops.com/home Hosted on Acast.
