The Happy Mondays

Redirected from Happy Mondays

The Happy Mondays was a rock and roll band formed in Manchester, England in 1985. The band was fronted by Shaun Ryder[?], who formed the band with his brother Paul Ryder[?], who played bass, and their friend Bez[?], dancing and playing percussion.

The band released its first album, Squirrel and G-Man Twenty Four Hour Party People Plastic Face Carnt Smile (White Out), in 1987 on the Factory Records label. A number of other albums followed, most of which were released in the United States on the Elektra[?] label. By the late '80s, the Happy Mondays were an important part of the Madchester music scene and personified rave culture.
