The Bourgeois Four

It's Boor-zhwah.

About Me

"Edgy as a crack whore without a fix, the melting pot sound is served well by acute observations and genuine affection for seedy city life."
-NME

"If you wanna shake it baby, then The Bourge have got it going on. Bashing up Von Bondies style riffage and funky bass grooves with an infusion of lyrical syphilis, The Bourgeois Four reek of superstar confidence. Their demo is five tracks of punk rock prowess melted around the lyrical eloquence of Morrissey-meets-early Libertines. 'She's So Ghetto' is an hilarious yet stomping foray into seedy Brummie living, while end track 'Not Worth Talking To' is The Smiths do samba; a groove laden character assassination, wrapped around the most sinersterly innocent vocals imaginable. The Bourgeois Four are the catchiest thing this side of Kate Moss's nethers."
