Handsome G

Bio:

“There’s always a sense of spontaneity when Handsome G hits the stage… they make me want to drink beer, clap my hands and dance. The promise of a great time while watching them is enough reason to break up with your loved one just to make it to a show.” – Kyle Deven, OC Arts & Culture. “Their sound is so distinctive and varied, they possess the unique capability of evoking multiple responses: they’ll have listeners anywhere from swaying in the daisy fields to head-bobbing in the night clubs.” The music is as infectious as it is timeless. They seamlessly, and effortlessly, combine archetypal rock and roll and 80’s influenced dance-rock with just a touch of acoustic folk. The beauty of this dynamic foursome is their ability to meld sounds without causing the listener to be overly distracted with genre morphing. Their live shows are exciting and energetic. “Packing crunchy guitars and light-hearted soul, Handsome G’s 'Skin, Bones & Silicone' is a mesh of big beat rock and roll and taut indie pop with warm, buoyant melodies. This couldn’t have come at a better time.” – Nate Jackson, OC Weekly. “The diversity from tracks such as ‘Outta Sight’ – featuring an icy, marching-band tempo, angular guitars and synth swells – to charming acoustic-driven numbers such as ‘Skipping Stones’ makes for one incredible ride. The appeal of their sound lies in its mix of good humor, sparkling soul and a pop simplicity that happily chases the colors of summer into the midnight bar scene.” It may sound a bit cliché but the truth is Handsome G audiences are left whistling and singing songs well into the next day. And it all lies within their irrepressible, natural hook-writing ability and delivery; it’s just that simple. Quality musicianship and lyrical aptitude mixed with this welcoming, ancestral outlook on music and life has led to a strong foundation and will continue on the road to a limitless future for this Handsome band.
