In a scene full of angst and over-production The Gorgeous Hussies' atypical take on progressive groove-rock is refreshing and infectious as they weave off-the-wall riffs, catchy melodies and danceable beats.
Since the summer of '06 this Salt Lake City based rock outfit has been tirelessly entertaining audiences at rock venues throughout the Intermountain West and don't show any signs of slowing down. Fresh off their successful Fall 2007 "Breaking Even" Tour the trio is actively booking their Winter 2008 tour as they hit the studio to record their sophomore project.
In 2006 the group released their debut album Oh! Hello that features 6 studio tracks and serves as an announcement to the music scene that the trio has arrived. The band is now feverishly working on recording their follow-up album in order to capture their current energy they've created in their live performance over the past year. They plan to release the new album before Christmas 2007.
The Gorgeous Hussies have been met with much fanfare from press outlets throughout the different cities they've toured. Newspapers, radio and television stations have all been gracious in promoting this grassroots band and have spread the word to their audience on The Gorgeous Hussies' upbeat rock driven live show.

Sorry, I'm not the best judge of this. To these ears, it all sounds generic and lacks any real personality. I know there's an audience for what you do on campuses all over the country, it's just not something I'd ever listen to. Good luck.C-MOR says
Cloak and Jagger joke on a folk for hire...Genre bending splendor, engender the choir...
Richochet ballet for a matinee...
Don't mount your poultry before they lay...
Strange, to reach into the beyond...
And pull out unknowing, like a glowing wand...
Where I wave it, words may sprout...
Tis true, I've no clue, what I'm strewing about...
See yourself...

Today's selection is a bit more demanding as this is a 9 minute piece that is a bit off the beat & path ~ even for someone as wacky as I ~ and features lyrics that might seem a bit off color too some ~ but in keeping with my spirit of always attempting to challenge our listeners to try something they might not normally hear ~ my contest selection of the day is called" 1 suse#2w_vox.mp3 " ~ enjoy !http://musicnation.com/music/thealtruistic/1-suse2wvoxmp3
