Rat (Ned's Atomic Dustbin)

Rat (Ned's Atomic Dustbin)

Rat was the preferred nickname of the musician Gareth Pring (born 8 November 1970, in Sedgley, West Midlands).

Rat is most famous for being the guitarist in early 1990s indie punk band, Ned's Atomic Dustbin, who had a string of hit singles between 1990 and 1995.

Rat was a founding member of the band, and stayed in situ from 1987 to 1995 (although he declined to play on a 1995 American tour).

After the Ned's split he formed a new band Groundswell with singer Jonn Penney, and co-wrote a number of songs together. However, he left the band after only a couple of live performances.

Along with original bassist Mat Cheslin Rat did not partake in the Ned's Atomic Dustbin reunion from 2000 - 2007, although both have now rejoined the band.
