Featured band of the day – Gorgeous Priceless (rock)
Friday night @ Doc Willoughby’s
Gorgeous Priceless emerged from the mouth of God at the dawn of time with a bible of original songs. They are charged with the task of preaching smooth to the devoted and mellow to the masses. ……….. To do so they will use the gospel of Blues, the word of Folk, the eucharist of Funk and the resurrection of Rock to achieve life everlasting……… When Ryan, the ordained minister of smooth from the brotherhood of the telecaster met Matt, a fellow old soul with abilities to express the universal flow, the harmonics were deafening and GP came to light. The two funky apostles quickly wrote several mellow parables. Soon after, an angel of funk named Dave appeared to them in vision of thunderous grooves; the church was almost complete. The three began searching for the spirit of time. After a long journey through the desert of uncertainty a lone traveller appeared with sticks of lightning and groove to spare, his name was Chad. The union was complete and a new day was born ……………………………………………. ………………………………………………………………………………….OUR MUSIC IS OUR CHURCH ******************************************************************************************************************************** ********************When Gorgeous Priceless exploded onto the scene earlier this year the response was phenomenal. They rocked 100 people out of their seats and onto the dance floor with their solid 45 minute set of all original rockin,funky, blues.Since then they have continued to spread their groove around British Columbia playing packed shows every other weekend and still finding time to record their 6 song self titled EP. Gorgeous Priceless is currently fine tuning their second set, booking summer dates and jamming 7 days a week.
