Biography
At the age of 17 John Waddington started his first band, serving as vocalist, guitarist, and principal songwriter for the punk group The Boyfriends.[1] The band was short-lived, and he co-founded The Pop Group in 1977, serving as one of their guitarists.[2] He performed on their two albums, Y and For How Much Longer Do We Tolerate Mass Murder?, which were critically acclaimed. After The Pop Group disbanded in 1981, he was asked to join another post-punk band, Maximum Joy.[3] He was also involved in the short-lived German electro outfit U-BahnX with Disc O'Dell.[4] Waddington was absent from Pop Group reunions and his last performance credit was on Lily Allen's 2006 album, Alright, Still.[5]
