artist The Gorgeous

A five piece hardcore outfit from the west coast, the gorgeous was formed by songwriter Dali Shaw. Dali, with previously written material (the skyline shoreline demo) recruited several other members to fill out the music and bring his songs to the stage. His brother and musical counterpart Miguel Shaw, and Miguel’s best friend Julien Brousseau were invited to Jam in the basement where the three of them had grown as musicians. The trio flourished with the material Dali had prepared and in a matter of a few weeks they were playing shows and in search of a vocalist. Jordon had spent time fronting for a few other bands in the area and was very please when the gorgeous invited him back after an eminent tryout. The group armed only with their demo and a mini van head out across the vast and plentiful countryside turning heads left and right as they covered the cold road in motor oil and spit. The crew of boys found a Mecca and basin where they were willing to wash their dirty dark denim and stringing hair. They planted seed in the greater Montreal area and it grew, with the addition of a second guitarist Hal Ferris, into what it has become today.
