Richard James Edwards (born 1967, disappeared 1995, officially presumed dead 2008) was a Welsh musician who was lyricist and rhythm guitarist of the alternative rock band Manic Street Preachers. He was born and raised in Blackwood, Caerphilly. Edwards was initially a driver and roadie for Manic Street Preachers, but he soon became accepted as the band's main spokesman and fourth member. His real contribution to Manic Street Preachers was in the words and design. It was widely believed that he took his own life by jumping from the bridge. Many people who knew him, however, have said that he was never the type to contemplate suicide.
