Happy Mondays

Happy Mondays Happy Mondays are an alternative rock band formed in Salford, Greater Manchester, UK in 1985. The band is fronted by Shaun Ryder, who formed the band with his brother Paul Ryder, who played bass. The rest of the band consists of their friend Bez, who danced and played percussion, plus guitarist Mark Day, keyboardist Paul Davis, and drummer Gary Whelan. There are several theories about why the Happy Mondays are called what they are. One is that the band’s name refers to what Manchester’s unemployed population called the day that welfare checks were issued, or that simply they didn’t have to go back to work on Mondays unlike the poor working sods.
