Description:
In a music-scene full of angst and over-production, The Gorgeous Hussies' atypical take on progressive alternative-rock is refreshing and infectious as they weave off-the-wall riffs, catchy melodies and danceable beats. The trio speaks to their audience the best way they know how: solid, melodically focused rock tunes, inspired arrangements, down-to-earth lyrics and clever improvisation.
Since the summer of 2006 this Salt Lake City based rock outfit has been tirelessly entertaining audiences at venues throughout the Intermountain West and don’t show any signs of slowing down.
The group released their debut album "Oh! Hello" in 2006. It features 6 studio tracks and continues to serve as an welcome announcement to the music scene that TGH has arrived.
The band is now feverishly working on recording their follow-up album in order to capture their evolving and energetic sound they’ve become known for in their live performances over the past two years. They plan to release the new album in the Summer of 2008, followed by an extensive tour in support of the release.
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 both gracious and enthusiastic in promoting and showcasing this grassroots band and have spread the word to their audience about The Gorgeous Hussies’ upbeat and rock-driven live show.
Band Members:
Although The Gorgeous Hussies name is quickly spreading among the US western region’s touring scene, this is definitely not a freshman project for the band’s members...

Jordan Olsen (guitar and vox) was an original member of acclaimed Salt Lake City rock group Old Man Johnson. He was also the founder of the popular local music radio show The Local Landing on KWCR 88.1 The Edge and is the former publisher for Utah’s underground music zine, Melting Music.
Ryan Smith (drums) has performed for the past half a decade with Salt Lake City rock-reggae veterans Super Hero. Smith is also a graduate of The Conservatory of Recording Arts and Sciences in Arizona and part-time’s as a recording engineer in Utah studios.
