Wednesday was a pop vocal group from Oshawa, Ontario, Canada. They scored a hit single in the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1974 with their cover of the song "Last Kiss", which peaked at #34. That same year, they were nominated for the Canadian Juno Award for Most Promising Group. The single reached #2 in Canada. A follow-up single, a remake of "Teen Angel", was their final chart single in America. The group continued with success in Canada, before and after changing their name to Wenzday in 1976. The parent album, entitled Last Kiss, was released on Ampex Records in Canada, Sussex Records in the U.S. and A&M Records throughout the rest of the world. The band reunited briefly in 2003 for a few successful concerts. Paul Andrew Smith went on to record several solo albums - "A Stranger In My Own World" - "Above The Stars" - "Illogical Box" on Moondog Records as Black Violet. [1]
