    Artist History
    The original Banana Wednesday formed in the mid-1930s as entertainment for depression stricken coal miners. As the war brought the country back to economic stability, Ban-Wed began what is now called their heyday. Excesses in every imaginable aspect of these talented troubadours' lives began to take a toll. In 1957, George Stevens Clark VIII announced that he was leaving the band. Though they tried to continue under many other names, the group was never the same. Except for this, you guys. Get this. In 1972, after much speculation, the band agreed to perform a reunion concert at the Czech Hall in Yukon, Oklahoma GSC VIII and all. They were a hit!! Since then, the band has seen many ups and downs including a short stint on the charts in Kuala Lumpur. Though only one original member remains, the band still stands as a historical testament to the drive and determination of the human spirit to overcome all hardships. God Bless America!!! And Kuala Lumpur!!!! And Bangladesh, hell.
