Wednesday was a pop vocal group from Oshawa, Ontario, Canada. They scored a hit single on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 in 1974 with their cover of the song "Last Kiss", which peaked at No. 34. That same year, they were nominated for the Canadian Juno Award for Most Promising Group. The single reached No. 2 in Canada and No. 1 on the Canadian Billboard 100. A follow-up single, a remake of "Teen Angel", was their final charting single in America. 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 group continued with success in Canada, before and after changing their name to Wenzday in 1976. They scored their second biggest hit with an Elton John cover, "Loving You Baby" which reached No. 6 in Canada.
The band reunited briefly in 2003 and 2017 for a few successful concerts. Paul Andrew Smith went on to record several solo albums - A Stranger in My Own World, Above the Stars, AGO, Masks and Mummeries, Time, and The Power of Schnoz on Moondog Records under Black Violet Project.
In September 2022, Wednesday was inducted into the OMA Hall of Fame with a lifetime achievement award presented to them at the event by their long-time producer John Driscoll.
On December 20, 2022, drummer Randy Begg died of a heart attack in his home, at the age of 71.
