The Story
Badfinger was a UK power pop band that originated in Swansea in 1961. Initially called the Iveys, they rebranded themselves after a Beatles working title, and their lineup featured Pete Ham, Joey Molland, Tom Evans, and Mike Gibbins. Known for their melodic hooks and harmonies, Badfinger released notable tracks like "Come and Get It" and "Day After Day" during their time with Apple Records. They recorded five albums and toured widely, channeling the spirit of the era's rock scene. However, the band's journey took a tumultuous turn with Apple’s decline. Their sound remains a cornerstone for power pop enthusiasts, echoing in the hearts of fans who still cherish their music today.
