BIO

(SEATTLE, WA) In the city known for Grunge Rock and perpetual rain, THE BGP offers a surprisingly upbeat perspective. Bringing forth an arsenal of blue-eyed soul dance jams about big dreams and small wallets, the band finds its roots in Suburban America. BGP frontman B. Ghorley’s off-the-cuff lyrical style pays tribute to the classic American dichotomy: working a blue-collar job and aspiring to financial freedom; engaging the realities of domestic life, yet struggling to achieve self-actualization. For The BGP, solace is found in the danceable beats of classic and modern soul and r&b artists like Hall and Oates and Robin Thicke.

The cornerstone of the band’s odyssey is found on the stage, where 3-part harmonies, vintage instruments, and a fan-base that shouts and dances nearly as much as the performers themselves, are a refreshing jolt of energy in a gray tapestry of music industry sameness. Stage jumps from the top of a Fender Rhodes, Jimi Hendrix-style guitar riffs, and an infusion of hip hop dances beats are just the beginning of a live show that can only be described as one-of-a-kind.

As Allison Rizk of Silver Tongue Music puts it, "The BGP has a reputation of electrifying live performances, packed houses, and often jumping onstage and performing with other local acts from Seattle’s tight-knit music community." Recently the band has shared the stage with break-out artists Fitz and the Tantrums, Ernie Halter, and Allen Stone.

Last August, the band ingratiated fans and critics with the release of a new Full Length album project (produced by Brian Fennell of Barcelona). The record, entitled "Love and Rent," chronicles the band's journey working middle-management style day jobs to support their families, while simultaneously touring and performing as much as possible. BGP frontman B. Ghorley describes the album as "our attempt to find something romantic in our struggles."

"Love and Rent" can be purchased at iTunes, Zune, Amazon, and CDBaby, or previewed at GrooveShark.
