Wang Chung

On stage: Sunday
 

Artist Biog

Wang Chung came out of the post-punk, New Wave scene in the UK going on to achieve global success selling millions of records. Throughout their 30 year career they have released 5 albums and 2 Greatest Hits compilations. They have had 6 US Top 40 hits including a number 1 and international Top 40 hit, “Dance Hall Days”, achieved cult status with their soundtrack for William Friedkin’s movie “To Live and Die in LA”.  In the process of all of this (and somewhat unintentionally), Wang Chung became part of the contemporary culture of North America.  Their huge smash ‘Everybody Have Fun Tonight’, with its now famous line 'Everybody Wang Chung Tonight' saw the invention of a new US verb; 'to Wang Chung', the band being name-checked by everyone from Homer Simpson to Frasier Crane.
