BadfingerBadfinger were a British rock band consisting originally of Pete Ham, Ron Griffiths, Mike Gibbins ‎and Tom Evans, active from 1968 to 1983, and evolving from The Iveys, formed by Ham, Griffiths ‎and David "Dai" Jenkins in Swansea, Wales, in the early 1960s. Joey Molland joined the group in ‎‎1969, following the departure of Griffiths. Signed by The Beatles' Apple label in 1968 as The Iveys, ‎they adopted the name Badfinger in 1969. The band drew comparisons to the Beatles initially, due ‎to the similarities of their music, and the mentorship of some members of the Beatles.‎
