Presley, a band.

About Me

Presley is a three piece rock band from the Boston area. Drawing from influences all over the map, theyre best seen in the live setting. Presley does not go on stage with a set list and will often improvise whirling, loud and melodic sound-scapes during the live show, segueing from one song to another usually without notice to the audience. Presley has shared bills with bands from all different genres from rockabilly to grindcore.
Presley has three CD's out: a 6 track CD from 2001, a 12 track full length CD recorded with Steve Austin of Today is the Day fame, and the 2005 release Elizabeth. They will be recording their next full length CD in the summer of 2007 for release at the beginning of 2008.
Some review quotes from the brand new Elizabeth EP (read the full reviews in the blog section): "The band has morphed into a spacy but tight improv / jam-rock band somewhere between Phish, Mogwai, Godspeed You Black Emperor! (the first album, at least), and Hawkwind, only with a bright and poppy center..."
"...as a purveyor of noisy landscapes and improvisational exploring, Presley remains a band of the highest order"..This profile was edited with Thomas' myspace editor™ V2.5

Doc Ryan's - Oct 16th, 2004

As the Red Sox suffered a horrible, embarassing loss we played a set for over an hour tonight. Everything went pretty well on stage as far as I can tell. Good crowd came out. Ichabod totally destroyed...

O'Brien's - 9/16

What was initially a gig I thought would be mailed in by the three of us due to exhaustion, and feeling like we've hit some sort of creative plateau turned out to be one of the better gigs we've done ...

Great Scott gig

It's odd, I went into this gig with slightly low expectations, coming on the heels of two great shows at the beginning of the month I think I was mailing it in on stage tonight. A broken guitar string...
