Progressive indie band from
Richmond, Virginia, initially composed of singer/songwriter Paul Allgood and
programmer Jeff Hathaway. Allgood later moved to North Carolina, where he looked
for cooperation with keyboardist Jonathan Kidder and bassist Kirk Bryson. The
musical offspring of this relationship can probably best be described as
electro and synth pop.
Originally the band would have been known as This Is
Wedlock, if it wasn’t for the fact that Allgood has a soft spot for band names
that consist of one single word.

Wedlock has an 'alternative' name: 105 Deckowls, used only outside North America. The reason: Wedlock
is one of the many aliases of Dutch DJ and producer Patrick van Kerckhoven
(born 1970). To avoid confusion the Americans use a somewhat forced anagram of
Wedlock (105 Deckowls) when they are away from home. Not uncommon in marriages we’ve been told.
Active: 2004-present, US

However they used the name, the music is still a good listen! He sounds like the dude from some band, Splender or something? Rock on!
No doubt they are amazing! I did not know the story behind the name though, but I must say these guys are true performers.
Has anyone listened to their song 'Black Sundress' ? I kinda love that song!
@Alex OMG yes! I love it too! I am always dancing to that song. It has a great beat.
Guys you must hear the Hagiphonic version of Black Sundress! The song is so funky that you won't stop dancing. Plus the video is really awesome!
@Zyan haha I just listened to it and it is pretty cool. The video had me smiling and laughing! Great song
There is another song called the witness. The video of that song is also quite visually phenomenal. Did anyone listen to it?
Anyways, it is a great band and i hope they release some more songs soon.
I heard a few of their songs a while ago and I must say , it was amazing music!
