Few musicians have had as great an impact on the British music scene as Woking-born Weller; he achieved fame with the rock band The Jam, which was at the forefront of the Mod revival with their hits Going Underground and A Town Called Malice.

Following The Jam’s split, Weller had further success with Style Council: a soul band which Weller formed with The Merton Parkas’ Mick Talbot. The 65-year-old then established himself as a solo artist with his eponymous 1992 album, and he’s been making hits and inspiring bands ever since.

After his self-titled debut album, Weller teamed up with Steve Craddock — Birmingham rock band Ocean Colour Scene’s guitarist — for his second studio album, Wild Wood. Weller’s third album, Stanley Road, went straight to number one in 1995.

You might be wondering where Weller got the nickname The Modfather from. Weller has undoubtedly been an influence on huge Britpop bands such as Oasis, Blur, the Charlatans, and Supergrass, and he’s been awarded four BRITs, including the Best British Male award three times and the Outstanding Contribution to Music award. He’s known as the godfather of Britpop, also known as The Modfather.
