Bedford Falls is a 4 piece rock and roll band from Cardiff,
South Wales.
We’ve been doing what we do for about five years. We wonder where the time went too.
We play melancholy punk rock that has been compared to bands like; Husker Du, Buffalo Tom, The Moving Targets, The Lemonheads, REM, The Weakerthans and Leatherface amongst others.
We feature two members of Cardiff’s legendary and much missed post-hardcore outfit The Take and a current member of The New 1920s.
We’ve previously released two split 7” singles. One on Newest Industry Records with Floridian band The Enablers and the other with London band Sevens and Nines on Rat Patrol Records.
We’ve recently finished recording an album, entitled “Savings And Loan”, that'll be released by Boss Tunage Records on the 21st April 2008.

Available from 21st April - Cardiff's BEDFORD FALLS have not disappointed with their long awaited debut album "Savings And Loan"
Sounding like it wouldn't be out of place on Taang! in the early 90s, BEDFORD FALLS deliver classic melodic punk in the vein of MOVING TARGETS, BUFFALO TOM and early LEMONHEADS
The 12 tracks are complemented by some stunning artwork and packaging, including a black vinyl effect CD
No.5
